  • hi , my daughter is 29 and has asd , she is now being assessed for adhd which i'm sure she has. She finds it very hard to listen, concentrate , or relax. she is always on the go and doesn't even relax to watch tv.

  • Hi

    I'm new to all this, my son now 6 has been diagnosed with Asd, Torettes, Sensory processing disorder and being tested for Adhd. 

    I'm truly struggling with his behaviour, the rudeness in how he speaks to people and the violence, especially me. I am finding it's ruining our days out with our other 2 children. He creates in new environments, cries if things don't go to his plan, gets aggressive if he doesn't win and just struggles in new situations but I truly don't know how to deal with him. His step dad tries but to no avail.

    Can anyone help, suggestions welcome?  What works for you and your little ones?
