Can anyone tell me anyone else it’s worth trying to talk to?

2louises

My daughter is autistic, and has had what I call opposites since around 6, probably before but her language was up to much before that, last year, my daughter then 16, we went to CAHMS  I think it is called, after just one hour, where they asked me more than they spoke to her they said it’s not ODD, which I don’t think it is either, they said it’s behaviour based not mental we can’t help, no one has told who can help, I have done parenting course, traffic lights,123, which didn’t help. Can anyone tell me anyone else it’s worth trying to talk to. She’s 18 in November, other than this, behaviour she’s a smart cookie but she been put in lowest group purely on this problem and it’s so exasperate every time I google I get sent the odd route.

Welcome to the Community.

 

I am sorry that you have so far not been able to find support for your daughter this must be very Frustrating for you.

You state your Daughter was diagnosed with Autism does this diagnosis still stand?  If so, this could be a major factor to your

Daughter’s needs not being met. I have added some links for you, although I am sure you have used these.  But the test one might just highlight

Any issues or lead you to some help or support.

My daughter was diagnosed with Autism at four and yes it still stands, We managed to get PIP sorted when she hit 16 with help of her school. She has been statemented for whole school she is now at 16+. Since secondary she’s been in SEN school, they helped me get the appointment. Mostly the school seems good and very supportive but even they can’t seem to work out how to help her.
