Pain Seeking Behaviour in Children

Recently one of the mums on of the group many groups I am on for support of SEN people mentioned the fact that their little one purposely causes harm to themselves by doing things such as banding their head against hard objects like walls and doors. This was actually something that I was thinking about recently as I used to do this myself.

The Struggles

It has been so long since I posted here, I had this need to be positive and when I couldn't I just usually didn't post...

I'm struggling so much of late, and tbh, I'm just at my wits end with myself. Trigger alert, lots of negative talk about autism here. Maybe some swearing... I apologise in advance.
