Hello

Hello, just a post to introduce myself and say hi to everyone.

Was advised that this is a great place to meet other people who may relate/understand to how things are for us. I would love to be able to connect with people and learn, help if possible too as resources are very limited where we are, as it is for many others I'm sure.

My autistic daughter is 13, she was diagnosed last year. She struggles a lot with school and with socialising. Her room is her comfort zone, I am her safe person. She dislikes affection, goes through obsessive spells of learning about the most random things. Anxiety is a real struggle for her. She is a very caring, very clever, very shut off girl. 

It would be lovely to hear from and about some of you all. To share any tips and tricks and fails etc.
