Hi, bit of background story. My daughter 10 years old was diagnosed in December with autism after a bit of a battle with anxiety which led to school refusal. Anyway I’ve just been diagnosed today myself with asd I’ve suffered with severe anxiety but it’s been awful lately. Every other week I’m physically poorly, aching bones, sore throat, blocked nose just so generally unwell I’ve always wondered why as there was no explanations but after being diagnosed today and a chat with the psychologist he explained it was down to me having to mask to socialise as 3 days a week I have a tutor in my home to teach my daughter, most of the 3 days my daughter refuses as she struggles to communicate but the tutor still sits for atleast an hour up and down stairs trying to get my daughter to engage it is a bit of a battle and by the end of the week I’m physically drained and poorly as we have other appointments throughout the week for both my self and my daughter. Does anyone else ever feel like this? And if so what do you guys do to help with this? Thank you.
