My son is 5 years old and Autistic. Some days are beyond stressful! Any mommas that could give me a little advice?

I have a 9yr old and 4yr old, both boys on the spectrum. I know how that is.

I don't have a child on the spectrum, but I do have an ADHD and SPD kiddo. Day by day, find his strengths. Do you have OT for him? Use their tools. We do a lot of sensory play, have safe/quiet spaces etc. Take time for you too.

Thank you. He’s had some trauma the past year and is now turning to violence for the answer. He is seeing a counselor but only once a week

@missywinslow I'd try to get some occupational therapy as well. Weighted blankets can be calming. We have a tent and sensory chairs when he's on overload and needs to calm down.
