Hi

We have a 12yo son who has a working diagnosis of ASD.  This comes after years of concern about occasionally volatile behaviour and actions, and ongoing assessment through CAMHS.

I'm hoping some of you will be able to share the benefit of your experience with us, as we feel overwhelmed and a bit lost as to how to go forward with things.

Look forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks, J, I think you might be similar to our son as we think of him as high functioning, much as he does, although he is upset at the thought of being diagnosed.

    As you say, it may take some time to sink in however you're right that it's for the best in the long run.

    You sharing your experience has been very helpful. I will point him towards this site as it should really benefit him.

    Thanks again to you and JP for sharing your experiences.
