Hi
Im new to this. I’ve just been told my 16 year old son has autism, which I’ve suspected for many years but wasn’t sure but he’s now struggling at college and his new therapist has joined up all the dots. I’m feeling guilty I’ve not helped him sooner but also happy we might be able to help him at last.

Welcome to the community! You might like to check out the discussions in the Autism section to gain support and advice. Please try not to feel guilty, I know it's easier said than done. Please let us know if there is anything at all that we can help you with!

Have you checked out the National Autistic Society?
We also have an autism and aspergers advisor if youd like to ask him any questions.
