Not sure what to do!

Hi,

My 6 year old was diagnosed with Able bodied Autism a month ago. We just dont know what to do. We always knew that something was diferent but now we have had the diagoisis we just dont know what to do next.

We seem to be suck im limbo waiting for reports from the hospital and it's very frustrating. Has anyone got any advice to offer us cause we are not sure what to do next. His behaviour is hard, we try to understand what hes going through but we come accross stummbling blocks all the time wondering how to deal with things. We cant take him out anywhere because he is a knightmere and the looks and responses we get from other people is awful. We have no support from family and friends and we feel so alone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
