Does anyone want to chat?

Hi it's Matthew here.

This morning I didn't go to the carehome so I am feeling pretty low. Just wanted to know if anyone would like a quick chat?

Regards,

Matthew.

    I sometimes thing of my ASD as like having an unruly pet dog with me all of the time. You can't leave him behind and he has good points and bad points.

    You won't get rid of the syndrome but you can understand it and control it some of the time. Other times, it'll run off and make a mess but you have to accept that that will happen from time to time.

    I expect you have seen Ashleigh and Pudsey? They did so well because Ashleigh understood her dog so well that she could train it to do what she wanted. This wasn't done with a stick but with love and understanding. Can you love and understand your ASD so that you can use its strengths and manage its weknesses?
