at wits end

juju

hi new to all this but so lonely, i have 4 kids and my eldest has aspergers he is 12 years old.i am trying so hard to understand him and help as much as i can but he is so hard to handle at the min.it is causing so much stress for himself too. we have no family hear and i litterally have no friends as all my time is spent at home.i am too tired to even sleep now and am so tearfull does any one know any groups that are friendly and not judgementle and that i can take my 3 year old who never mixes with other kids. i find it difficult after bad experiences to just walk in to new places.

  • thankyou for your time and reply, my 12 year old is in the local senior school and is doing ok at the moment he has alot of help one to one even though he is not statemented. social services would not help they said we did not need a social worker as no one was at risk/however they did give us a chap from the disability side of there department who 2 years ago promised days out and respite for my son , we only saw him twice then he left and someone else was meant to see us a year and a half on and no one came we were seeing some one from the autism team but my partner couldnt be at the meetings they arranged and the last one a few months ago was cancelled and not heard since i am not great at speaking on phones so leave it to my partner. i realy feel that there is no one to turn to as i said i have no family hear and no friends i have tried but as my son causes trouble out and about and at school it is hard to make friends when he was at primary school he stole packed lunches and talk got round and it has stuck.
