I dont know is it me or every body is the | Autism PDD

yes shelley all i say, think, dream is autism. Medication will help you feel better and also deal with all the your emotions that are so overwhelming..especially in the beginning...I needed them and still do..I also couldnt sleep for months..all I could think about was autism. It got so bad that all my friends stop calling, my family was treating me differently and changing the subject everytime I mentioned autism or Sarah...I needed something to help me be more focused on helping her and moving on and I couldnt do it without medication. It does get better in time I promise:) Lili, we all do that at some point or another. We can not help it especially
since we live it day in and day out. It does sound from your other posts that
you are very proactive about helping your son and that is a good thing. You
will find a way to help your son. Just keep at it. Take it one day at a time.

Lili... it's a phase we all go through.... HOW old is your son ? Do you have any other children ? What about family support... your hubby, the extended family members like aunties and uncles or even grandpas and grandmas ??

i have a 8 years old dughter and my husband all my family is back home. i'm dealing with this every day and none of my family friends ever seen such a thing seems like i discover horible mysteries disese. all this time i havent seen any of my friend go tro to many problem as i do . before one finish another one will start. but its okey if i make my son to the level i want him i be king of the world. keep my finger cross. thank you so much every body for your concern.

love you all and good luck.

since my son been diagnosed with mild autism but moderat language dalay and sever eating habit, i feel so bad.

I have no disaire to the word at all. i hope day never start. i cant concentrate on any thing even daily life. most of the time i sit front of computer and watch the recoverd videos or go see recoverd kids because it gives me hop. i dont want to know what caused autism or see any sever kids other wise i give up. no one has ever told me that my son (5) will stay like that. the doctor, physchologist therapist, teachers ,and anyone who see him they all think he will be perfect not even okey. but bottom of my heart is some thing else. also i dont like to shw in poblic becuse he lagh or has echololia. and people giving him strang look which kills me. i either send my doghter or have baby sitter whach him. i dont know this 2 years its been like hell for me and the familly.

HUgs !!!

Dont give up hope - its perfectly normal to feel despair - I know I have been in the pits myself

Like someone said you cant change the beginning of your story but you can change the end

The thiing that helps me is remembering to change my mindset from his "label" to "what will help him"

Vent to us ! we know what you feel

Hi lili. I think alot of us have times where we feel like this. I know I do.I have just recently realized that my ds is more affected by autism than I had originaly thought. It is a hard fight. Hang in their, and for now, just try to go minute by minute, hour by hour, than day by day. DOnt obsess about what COULD be or what you dont know or CANT change.. I try to stop myself from doing that. This board is full of great people. Hang in thier, Ok?thank you i m tryinglili, I would encourage you to go see a doctor or a therapist, because you
honestly sound very depressed. Depression can change how you feel about
life, and make you feel scared, lonely, embarrased, and like you just can't
face the day. I hope you seek some professional help with these feelings,
because your son needs you. He needs you to help him succeed and grow in
this life, and be proud of him. You should not have to feel ashamed of your
son in public. Please take care of yourself for the sake of your child.

Lili,
