My DS is 7, 8 in April and is possibly on spectrum. We are currently on Easter hold and he keeps saying 'is this a dream mummy? Am I real?' He has also said he feels like an alien and like he isn't human. He also describes a feeling where he thinks about why the we exist and feels very scared. Yesterday he said how many days until we go back to a school? I think the lack of routine is making him anxious. Any thoughts, advice, similar experiences? Just feeling a bit lost and sad about it. My happy boy is becoming increasingly worried and preoccupied.
