[quote=Anonymous]I understand how frustrated you must be to have been discouraged from pursuing your instincts with your son. But - as you said - 'mourn' that it happened, and move on to what you can do now. I like this website which covers in general many kinds of support that are available. Consider checking for spectrum support groups/websites or a parent in your area that has found resources. Is there a children's hospital in your area that could recommend some resources? (You may also just want to look at some well known medical facility websites and see what information they may have. I like looking up info on Mayo Clinics website, and Web MD. This info can help you prepare for a doctor appointment, which you may want to consider. I would also see what options there may be through your school if they have a school psychologist, or contract with an educational service unit).

A friend of mine has a now 'adult' child on the severe end of the spectrum, and she said she gets a lot of support/ideas from facebook groups. Prayers!
