Help needed

I have a daughter who is 24, Aspergers, OCD, has tantrums and hits out and severe depression and on anti-depressants. We get no help from anyone, she's never slept through a whole night, she's got a degree but because she's seen as intelligent, which she is, the medical profession don't care or want to help in anyway.

Basically I have never been on these forums before but I need advice on who to turn to what help we can get, how to cope.

  • Hello Hope,

    Thanks for your reply. My daughter does still live at home and did have a community care assessment, but we were told as she was able to hold an intelligent conversation with them then she was ineligible to any help. She saw a psychiatrist who said that he'll review her again in a years time, and our GP doesn't know where to turn to next.

    Will try and find out about local Autism charities, our local Crossroads don't have funding for a group at the moment.

    Thank you for taking the time to reply, it was very kind of you.
