Hi I'm 34 and I am currently undergoing assessment for ASC. My partner has moderate learning difficulties and Dyslexia. His father and step mother received DLA for him until the age of 16. I have a 5 year old with Sensory Processing Disorder and currently under assessment for ASC. My youngest (2) has just been diagnosed with Hypermobility and she too is showing signs of sensory issues, including eating inedible objects.
I have suffered with mental health difficulties such I was 14. I am trying to help with my partners literacy skills to improve his employment. I offer him a great deal of emotional support and I prompt him to support with methods to use with our eldest child's challenging behaviour.
i would like to know if there is any support out there as I'm feeling so exhausted and overwhelmed by it all. I currently can't leave my children alone with my partner so I don't get any respite.
Thanks for reading0 -

Hi there, (would you mind saying what ASC is? Thanks),
Like Sam says, sounds like you've got so much on your plate. Do do DO come on here and rant and vent it all out. I know we can't make life easier for you all but it might help. Especially if getting out etc is hard.
Sorry I haven't got anymore specific advice (or a magic Wand!) but just wanted to offer support.
I have a 9 year old. It's a good job they are so cute!0 -
