Hello
So I've I come across wrong but does anyone ever feel lonely?
I am a fully one parent family and my 8 Yr old DS is suspected ADHD and ASD. He sill definitely be diagnosed with SPD and OCD and dyslexia, dyspraxia and PDA have also been mentioned.
I idolise my son but this last year has been expeectionally hard. Each year I have felt a deterioration with his behaviours/traits but 7-8 this have plummeted.
I've noticed he zones out alot. To the point we don't have conversations. This is when he is doing things and even when he isn't. I find myself repeating myself and getting silence. He isn't even looking at me. If he is doing something, for example watching TV or colouring or building lego it's like he is in his own little world and nothing is going on around him.
Maybe I'm being sensitive but it does upset me abit.
I'm taking him away on my own soon for the first time. The lack of communication is getting to me. Are we going to spend our days barely talking. Will it be silent at dinners?
I know I'm probably being too sensitive but was wondering if this behaviour goes hand in hand with the above conditions I've mentioned.
Thank you
