Hello,
I'm hoping I will be able to connect to other ladies who are in a similar position to me.
Life at home is strained and for me sometimes very lonely.
My husband hasn't received his formal diagnosis but there are strong indications that he is autistic.
We are both struggling to communicate without arguments and upsets.
I really need some help but don't know where to turn.
Thank you in advance.
Lynne
Is this really about autism or is it more of a general relationship thing? Your husband may be autistic or he may not, you don't know yet, autism isn't of itself a reason for a relationship to break down. Maybe you should seek some couples counselling so as you can talk through the issues that are causing arguments in a safe space?
