Hello my four year-old son just got diagnosed with level two autism and I’m not sure how I’m feeling I’ve known since he was 18 months that he was autistic, but his doctors always made me feel crazy. I went to another doctor and she said that he doesn’t look autistic, but he does have some ADHD going, which cannot be diagnosed until five years old today I finally got the diagnosis and I’m not sure how I’m feeling. He also has a speech delay so he will need ABA therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. I don’t know how I feel right now I feel like I failed him because I didn’t get him help sooner. I didn’t know how to get him helped and just relied on a regular doctor instead of looking for help elsewhere I just feel like I failed him. I’m not sure how to help him. Or what to do moving forward.
