Hi everyone

Hi,

I have just found this online group so thought i would introduce myself. My name is Rhiannon and i am 37yrs old. I have two children, Josh (12) and Lucy (9). Lucy was diagnosed with Autistic Spectrum disorder when she was 4.5yrs old and Josh was only diagnosed last September. Josh is having to see a psychiatrist for help fortnightly as he is struggling with managing his anger and also was having suicidal thoughts. 

Currently Josh can get very very angry and it's hard to calm him down when he gets like this so i struggle a lot. Really hoping i can get suggestions from others on how i can try and help him along with getting support for myself. 

Hope to talk to a few of you soon

Rhiannon
