My brother is autistic.. sometimes his yelling and screaming can get annoying.. and the days where he does absolutely nothing but sit there with a sad face is also very... difficult to watch. So, I was just wondering if anyone else live with an autistic sibling because uh.. there was someone who I always PM'd here.. I don't know what happened to that person.

Replies amiee Posted at 2:18 pm on Dec. 8, 2008 Not a sibling, although my cousin is autistic to the point where both my aunt and uncle had to give up work to look after him and he won't be able to ever do anything for himself. He can't communicate and things are generally always difficult for the immediate family. I can only understand to a certain degree how difficult it can be living with it constantly - my aunt and uncle have had the hardest time but they're two of the absolute bravest people I know. I hope you're coping with it ok and manage to find someone to talk to about it. scott sm Posted at 1:28 pm on Dec. 8, 2008 i used to but unfortunately past away a year ago it were my uncle switchfoott052 Posted at 1:28 pm on Dec. 8, 2008 i sometimes wonder if my brother has autism but then i remember my mom lets him do and get whatever he wants so he's just a spoiled brat. i just make a point of staying out of my house as much as possible cuz i cannot stand it This is a referral Posted at 1:27 pm on Dec. 8, 2008 Yes, both me and my brother are autistic. Not to the point of retardation though, as you might have noticed, or not All 4 previous replies displayed.
