I know it's caused by anxiety; the change in routine, excitement about Christmas (2 birthdays before then too) and uncertainty but how do you all cope with the non-stop running about/jumping on everything, shrieking, ignoring any request to quieten down, totally unable to calm. It's like that film Groundhog Day where no matter what I do nothing changes...they just get more and more hyped up until one of them gets hurt/something gets broken/I lose my cool and send them to their rooms where they collapse into meltdown after a huge fight with me about it. I'm 30 weeks pregnant as well and also have a toddler. And I'm unwell today. I'm starting to feel completely drowned by Autism...we've tried time and time again to get some support and get fobbed off, signed off or forgotten about each time. How do you help your kids calm down?!
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
