One of the best things I did for myself and my family was to join a support group. I attended the Arlington Parent to Parent meetings. I can't tell you the enormous sense of relief it was to meet and talk to other parents who were experiencing similar issues. I had finally met people who knew what I was talking about when I mentioned words like "hypotonia" or "sensory integration". It felt great being able to know that I wasn't alone on the emotional roller coaster. It felt even better to learn what worked and what didn't work for them and to try their suggestions. What was amazing was that a group of virtual strangers were brought together by one common bond, how to best help our children. The unconditional support and encouragement given within the group was and is exceptional. This page lists SUPPORT GROUP MEETINGS.
