From people who came through it

  • โ€œI'm not going to tell you it gets easier, because I don't know if it does. What I can say is that you learn to carry it better. The assessments, the meetings, the forms, they're exhausting, but you're the expert on your child. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Find one person who gets it, even if it's just someone online. And if you can, find two hours a week just for you. It's not selfish, it's survival.โ€

  • โ€œHi, you. I was in the same place this time last year. For me it was a speech therapist waiting list. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.โ€

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, I was where you are nearly four years ago. For me it was the same five foods. Last month I had people round for dinner.โ€
