  • Hey Gemma, I can offer advice as I'm new to this aswell, my son got a diagnosis of asd 4weeks now and I'm clueless. My son was referred to cass and they have programmes you can do to understand the diagnosis I'm on week 3 now and it's been very informative. I was also recommended some books too look at. There may be some support groups in your local area you could look up online. Hope this helps a little. X

  • Thanks hun I will have a look in to this
