Where we live in Halton we have a local young carers group and as far as I am aware this is a national organisation. Look around for your local autism support group too you will find a lot of people in your position to talk to. As an example have a look at our Facebook page Halton Autistic Family Support. Tom Albiston is our young carers leader he has an older brother who is autistic and may be able to help you. If you haven't got a local group do you feel strong enough to start one you'll be amazed how many people are in the same boat as you and will welcome your support and friendship as only people living with autism will understand where you are coming from.
