hi from a confused mum

disease

Good evening I have joined today after a very caring mum sent me the link. My 8 year old daughter was diagnosed last Monday we have been battling with her behaviour for around 2 years and only asked for help when she started picking holes in her skin earlier this year. I have had such a strong reaction to her diagnosis which I can't quite understand,  I knew there was a possibility but its hit me like a ton of bricks turning me to emotional jelly.  I know nothing about Apergers I feel lost and helpless.  

Idon't really know what I expect from posting here xxx

  • Hi all,

    It must be so tough being new to ASD, I bet its all very overwhelming as there is so much information to take in, having forums like these where you can get support from others in your position must bring you a little comfort though. I am not a parent, but I work very closely with a little 7 year old boy with autism and ADHD. I write a blog about what we do (I take him out to various places in London) and there are some tips and advice about how to take children out of the house. Click here for the link. It might not help, but I thought I would let you know about it just in case you find it useful.
