| we got the dx of asd a year ago.i still have my ups and downs.my son is 4 and continues to make progress so i am thankful for that.i dont feel anyone really understands how i feel,not even family.getting the dx is like being hit over the head with a brick-you feel powerless to do anything and wish you could make it better for your child,whom you love more than you love yourself. | |

I totally agree with this, nobody understands, and your family who you would expect to be there for you til the ends of the earth, they just fall down around you in a heap (for me anyway) and its like 'for goodness sake, this is MY SON AND MY LIFE, and you want ME to SUPPORT YOU???! As for the brick in the head, it was in the stomach for me. Like a huge WHOOMPH what just happened. Life is never the same again. And that (for us) is without a diagnosis, but for each time along our journey they have thrown a condition at us and said 'maybe' like neurological degenerative disease, and infantile battens. | |
