[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 493365, member: 8045"] My oldest is 8 yr old...... I was actually thinking during the night.......the Occupational Therapist (OT) that he sees isn't experienced enough to deal with all his issues....yes she is very well quilified but not experienced enough.....I know he needs Occupational Therapist (OT), but I actually feel he needs playtherapy much more now!!!!! I know about a very good psychologist, he used to saw the councelor who did playtherapy with him, but she admitted to not having any knowledge of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)!!!! So maybe I need to make an appointment with this psychologist and discuss all with her and hear her input......? I just feel worried to overlaod him with therapies and therapists....? He is starting ST for the first time this year to come......BUT he needs a way to get his feelings out in the mean time.....i can see how he is struggling....he will sit there with all the feelings on his face and body.....try to express it.....I try to give him words.....then he just give up and say he doesnt know and this must be the way it is.....He needs to draw, music, what ever to help him express his feelings and worries!!!????YES and positive experiences!!!!!To build his self esteem! Thanx Buddy for the reference to the book, I am going to look into it just now! Agh....I feel so bad because a big part of the meltdown was because we said he is not going to the skate park today because the rule is if he hurt one of us he looses this event.....but I could see he really didnt have control over what went on.....he also told me he lost his brain and couldnt remember anything! But we also need to stick to the rules! Think hubby can take him to a movie maybe..... [/QUOTE]
