Hi Yorkshirelass & Marjorie195,
Both your stories sound all too familiar. For my sons, help came way too late and we ended up having to get private reports in the end. Tragic when you consider what a difference early intervention could have made.
For my brother; God rest him, way too late also. He too took his own life when overwhelmed by a workplace bully.
Years ago those with Autism; diagnosed or not, were probably commited to asylums. Awful when you look back.
Hopefully, articles like this will help raise awareness though.
