I have lost almost all my friends. And my family. I could never do things like play groups or even go anywhere when Liam was younger. Now he's 17 and I think I'm just too exhausted to keep trying to make friends when it never works out.

yes, probably due to my withdrawal and not able to talk about the diagnosis, so know one knew why I was absent or struggling or having my own mood response difficulties. I stopped having gatherings in my home and the housekeeping got to where I wouldn't have anyone over. I knew who (even family members) did not believe in neuro diagnoses being anything more than poor parenting so that made sharing very limited. It's been a lonely 7 yr journey trying to learn and advocate for my child.

That's so true. We have to adjust our schedules according our children's behavior.
