My dad reacts really badly to mine too. Sometimes feel like he’s ashamed to have a daughter with disabilities and all the support I get from Claire and other people. The only way he has ever been there for me is financially (which I am grateful for as I wouldn’t have my flat without his help) but in every other way he’s pretty useless. Wish I could rely on him like I could my mum but just have to accept things the way they are, as hard as I’m finding that.
I was sorry to hear there wasn’t much around in your area in terms of support. Hopefully the groups help. What did they suggest you do to help with your sensory issues, if anything? I’ve been referred to an occupational therapist but have been waiting nearly 2 years already.
Also, what is an autistic person meant to look like?!
