my 3 year old son was born 6 weeks premature. I have zero history of asd in the family on both sides. I think my son is moderate to serve autistic. I’m really struggling with why and how. I did take sertraline through my pregnancy. I am really struggling to come to terms that I may have caused this? I feel so alone. I would love there to be answers to how this has happened. I think I’m searching for something I will never find and just going in circles sorry. I just get to the point of FEELING like I don’t want to be here anymore . I will take the step to get professional help because I’m struggling to deal with this on my own 😢 please be kind

Morning, OP. We're sorry to hear you're feeling so low and struggling. When we see posts like this, we usually send a link to our Mental Health webguide, which has lots of numbers and websites where you can find advice and support in real life. We hope that's of some use.
