Support thread for those of us with partners/spouses with ASC-all welcome

Hello. I've been chatting to some ladies on here who are struggling in their relationships with partners who have Aspergers or high function Autism and I've noticed there seems to be a need for support. I am in the same situation and my partner and I have a little boy aged 5, who is also on the spectrum. Life has been very tough for a few years, but my partner and I have just started counselling.

I am hoping some others will hop on board so we can all share info and experience and support each other.

I haven't intended it to be exclusively for ladies by the way.

Love Rosemary xx

  • Has he considered social housing? He would need a community care assessment to determine eligibility, but if eligible, he could be placed at the higher band A or B category, and this can ensure that should suitable housing come up, he would be first served. Otherwise it can it be a very long wait if placed in band C or below.

    To get a community care assessment, he can  contact the Council himself or get someone else to refer him.
