I'm a single mum with 3 adult children. My son has Asperger syndrome & ADHD is struggling and no one seams to care. He's gone from being under the intensive support team being seen at home weekly to being seen 6 monthly in clinic. He's struggling. I also have a daughter with ADHD & in the process of an autism diagnosis who is also struggling. I just feel overwhelmed and exhausted

Hello @dipsy Thank you for sharing. Sorry to hear this. We care as a community. You have come to the right place and hopefully we can help.
Something to consider have you spoken to The National Autistic Society Helpline 020 7833 2299.
See how they can help and advise.
You need a lot of support. I am sure also if you speak to our helpline as well 0808 800 3333.
They can advise you further.
I am sure there will be members of our community or team can add and assist anything else. To give you reassurance.
Hope that helps.
Pleasure to meet you
Take care
