Can't cope - bloody autism

[lollipoprainbow]

I'm finding it increasingly hard to deal with my dd10 and her autism. Every day is a battle, walking on eggshells to avoid the next meltdown. We had another one tonight and she cried and said she wished she was normal. How do other people cope? Please help, I'm so unhappy and so is she.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. Do you have any support IRL? I find that for every good day, there’s a not so great one round the corner! But I just try to get through each one.

When needs aren't being met at school this can often result in meltdowns at home after the build up of stress during the day.

Does she have an EHCP and support at school?
