Hello I,ve been lingering for a while...thought i,d say hi

Hi Im Kim and I have a five year old son who is autistic. He was diagnosed with mild to moderate. I have really good days and cope very well but sometimes its so hard. We have two older children so have done it all before. I think the hardest thing is being shouted at constantly and I feel like I cant be me anymore. I love him so much and I know I probably need to sort myself out. Im tired all the time , feel quite depressed and cant really talk to anyone about how im feeling. There is not alot of interaction as he spends a long time playing on his laptop. But he likes me with him so I dont get an awful lot done.I m going on, what do I sound like. 

Is this pretty normal ?

But besides all this miserable stuff ...hello everyone

  • You are welcome.  Yes well worth sourcing out a local group. Where I live we have a place called SNAC which is a charity set up by the local parents who have children and young adults with Autism, ADHD, epilepsy etc. I'm going to see if I can do some voluntary work there. Its a place where the kids can chill out and the parents get a break for a couple of hours. We all need a break x
