Hi - im new here - hellooo! Basically im looking for somewhere to rant and rave and ask advice lol! My ds is nearly 11 - when he was 7 I knew something wasnt right - his handwriting was terrible and his reading wasnt brilliant - thought he may be dyslexic?? Anyway his behaviour detioriated and he was having major meltdowns to the point where i couldnt cope - went to see school nurse and she suggested paedritician (sp?) so we started with the paed, been all the way through cahms and counselling and have finally got an appointment with a speech and language therapist next week - now im a bit nervous as to what is going to happen - and to be honest im not exactly sure why hes seeing a speech therapist - there are other issues - hes obsessed with lego and superheroes to the point where he will not change the subject despite us trying to, doesnt like loud noises and covers his ears when im hoovering - loads of other little things - his counsellor did say she thought he was on the spectrum but where she wasnt sure, she didnt even finish seeing him - she got pregnant with twins and went off on maternity leave early - she suggested he see the therapist and i never really got the chance to ask why! Sorry its a bit long winded and random but if anyone could help id be most grateful! Thanks for reading!
