Update

Its been a while since I used this – life kind of got in the way. We have been struggling alot with anxiety and we are back to the GP in a couple of weeks to ask for referrals. There is more to my son. I am certain he also has learning disabilities – he is 13 and still unable to read or write so we need a formal diagnosis of this as there are different avenues to access support if this is also on his record.

I am stressing at the fight ahead of us as I know it is not going to be easy to get them to assess for just learning disabilities – it is normally in conjunction with an autism assessment – but he was diagnosed aged 4 so this is not something that would have been looked at so young. We have already been told by school that he wouldn’t be assessed for just learning disabilities – they checked with the Educational Psychologist.

We will wait to see what the GP says and take it from there. Here we go again!
