My 4-year-old is currently on the ASD pathway (possibly ADHD too) and it’s a very long slog. He has been on the waiting list since last May and at the time I was told to expect a 16-18 month wait. In-between, you have to attend various hospital appointments and do online courses. You’re constantly having to advocate for your child too, which is almost a job in itself, especially in my case as a single and full-time working parent.
