Coping with family lack of support and understanding as an autistic parent.

Jude66

Is there any information or advice anywhere, on how to deal with family not supporting or understanding my troubles etc? 

I feel like they are saying "okay its good you're getting help and we might think about letting you back in if we see an improvement ".
