Hi All, I'm new to Mumsnet so please be gentle!
I have a 15 year old son who is currently awaiting an autism assessment but with family history and professional opinion its a cert.
- He has support in school but that's it, does anyone know of any other help that might be available prior to the assessment confirming.
- Also, I have heard that weighted blankets can help reduce anxiety and cannabis oil can help reduce autistic tendencies - does anyone have any experience of either of these.
And finally, how do you all cope?! I work full time and am just about keeping on top of the housework, buying groceries and getting all the forms etc returned. Callum comes first so he's taken care of.
So far this week I've cried at the postman, come to work in my slippers and lost my purse - how do you keep it all together there just aren't enough hours in the day!
Thank you for any advice you can give
