Help beyond diagnosis?

R’s mummy

Hi everyone, 

our son is 5 and was diagnosed when he was 4

with ASD with demand avoidance and sensory issues.

He suffers from a lot of social anxiety and will not attend school. I went with him 1/2 a day a week and even that was too much. So he is home schooled.  

My question is to other parents - beyond diagnosis have you had any help? We have had nothing! 

My husband and I are exhausted. He is physically violent and aggressive towards us and our 2 year old daughter all day long. He is controlling and highly demanding. We are walking on eggshells all day and night long. 

I am currently writing his EHCP. Once it is submitted will we get any help then?

    I mean they will probably push hard for him to return to school if they grant him an EHCP as part of its terms. On the other hand the one main excuse they generally use for rejecting an EHCP is that the school can provide sufficient special needs help itself without one ... which obviously doesn't apply here.
