New to this all and would like to talk to people who have a child with autism too

Hi my 23 month old son recently got a working diagnosis of autism. I feel quite alone with it all and I'm sick of people just bypassing me when I try talk about it like it means nothing because they don't have a child with problems. I feel like I can't talk to my friends about it because they domt understand it. Some days I feel a bit isolated in the house with it and wish there was like a group I could go to and meet other parents with children similar to mine but there seems little on that would fit in with my older sons preschool run . Just looking to chat really!
