ive had such a bad day today ds has been much better though

but at the drop of a hat i could cry i sat here last night and thought i knew ds was autistic but as i didnt have to contend with all the traits at home i guess i neverr really took it in

but now he doesnt sleep he is sensitive to sound he shuts himself away all day started to harm himself its actually occurred to me that his autistic

i feel like his just been dx all over again and i feel stupid ive known for 9 mths and although i got used to it and took it really well im wandering if its all been for show as now i feel im out of my depth my parenting skills arent very good and im scared to leave the house as i cant deal with the melt downs and i just want to cry

and then i hear such sad news and the worries that other mn are going through and i want to cry ah gain i feel daft my worries are hardly the same i should stop feeling so sorry for myself

nobody needs to reply im sitting here alone and just need to speak

hereidrawtheline it does seem that way to me my ds isnt really into toys as such or if it is its some expensive learning style toy so helps to have his money as i dont say no he cant have something now its his money he can have what he wants lol

his not spoilt but if its something he can learn with etc he can spend his money on it

thanks tc im feeling more positive we have been going to see the trains with his binoculars only 15 minutes out but his walking there and back and getting fresh air so that is good he seems more cheerful last few days

i got out last night for few drinks with friends so was able to get away from it all and relax properly so thats made me feel bit better and my dp and i had a laugh before i went out so thats helped too

we've been out once today he doesnt want to go again so im not going to force him at least thats a bit of exercise and some fresh air his till full of cold so bit run down so i was lucky he went out at all
