Hey guys, i am new here. Currently awaiting diagnosis for my 4 1/2yr son who, so far, the peadtrician has said has "some traits of aspergers syndrome" erm.. i am really here because i feel so alone. i have people telling me that there is no such thing as aspergers, and that it is really just an excuse 4 bad behaviour so i feel i can't talk 2 anybody about it as all they want to do is jugde me, my son or "give advice" on how to disclipine him
i have a little girl who is 2 yrs old. The drs say she isn't showing any signs of aspergers.
I feel like i am banging my head against a brick wall.. (spots perfect icon..)
My son can be such hard work, the school holidays are a nightmare! i can't drive, i can't get anywhere as we in the middle of nowhere, i knw no1 here, i have no family support so it's isolating and boring. There is nothing for kids to do here, so how can i keep a hyper child under control without upsetting him by walking too far etc? (the town and drs is a 45 min walk each way) He likes to know what i have planned for the day, but the thing is i never have anything planned? 0h yeah we will play, make somethings and watch tv? that isn't interaction surely?
When he goes back to school he'll be all upset again as it has become a change in routine again.
Day in day out, with no break from the kiddies is hard, but i wouldn't change the for the world. I need a diagnosis.. how long does it take?
sorry guys, i am not usually this miserable H0NEST!
