Aspie son age 5 - ipswich - feeling a bit lonely

ByronsMummy08

Hi, my son was recently diagnosed with aspergers. Although I wasn't surprised, like many of you have said, it's still a bit of a shock when you finally get the diagnosis. Waiting to attend a course at the moment. My son doesn't get invited on play dates or many birthday parties but he would so love some friends. I also find it difficult to mix in big groups, think I might have aspergers too!  If there is anyone out there that would like to meet up please msg me. Or just chat on here/Facebook. X

  • Hi,

    I live in Ipswich and recently learned that my 4 year old son has Aspergers.

    He has not officially been diagnosed as yet but is on a waiting list to see a paediatrician but all other health care proffessionals seem to thing this is what he has.

    The not understanding certain things, repetativesness and hand flapping to name a few. My son does have a very small circle of friends but is not close to any of the children as he is not able to communicate with them very well and it is tiring to explain why he does what he does constantly to people so I am becoming more and more reluctant to venture out. I would like to be in contact with someone in the same situation as any support groups in the area seem to be aimed at older children.
