[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 473364, member: 1550"] Hi there. I see you've posted before, but (I apologize) don't remember your story. I think the red tape in social services is horrible. If you are working only with them, it's normal for them to mess up. Now a lot of services can be gotten through the school district. I don't know where you live...in some states you can access help even if you homeschool (that is not the case in Wisconsin, where I live). However many states do that. If you are not counting strictly on social services, I strongly recommend accessing the nearest university hospital/clinic (even if it's a few hours away) because they will have every type of professional you could need right in the same place and, if you don't have insurance, they will take Medicaid or else possibly work out a payment plan. Also, they tend to be on the cutting edge of treatment. I would go to the university medical center first...and do try to get a diagnoses. The Autism Society could be a great resource for Aspergers. I don't know if you need a formal diagnosis or not. Is there a reason why you don't want one? [/QUOTE]
