Welcome to ASD Aspergers Support Group in Nelson

Welcome, to what I hope will be a very helpful tool for people in Nelson who have children on the ASD spectrum. I found during my ASD journey, as Im sure you have, that there is alot to learn and alot of resources to find so I wanted a place to share resources we find in Nelson. 


Also connecting with other parents and caregivers is invaluable, but it occurred to me that due to the very nature of ASD that parents and caregivers were not always able to meet face to face. So I wanted a way to have a connection and a way to be in contact with others on the ASD journey. The very act of being connected is a support! so welcome and I truly hope this helps!


Also a BIG thank you to Autism NZ - Nelson, they have been a fantastic support and wealth of knowledge (Viv and Jill you are fabulous you know), also Marion in Christchurch, and you guys all work so hard to get us together and help us with the information that we need.  Also Trish from ASD Plus, thank you it really did and has made a difference and turned our home life into a positive one!

  1. Hi, great to find this blog. I am living with an aspergers partner and have few (none,!) outlets to talk relieve the tension that inevitably builds up.
    Do you know of support (offloading!) groups or meetings for aspergers types here in Nelson?

  2. HI there. It was great to find maybe a support group in New Zealand for non asperges partners who live with an asperges partner. It would be so good to talk to someone else in my suitation. At times it can be so frustrating and with the frustration comes the tension and the arguments. IT can be at times so lonely and like living with a stranger in your own home. I do love him but hate his asperges!

  13. First of all I would like to say superb blog! I had a quick question
    that I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing. I've had trouble clearing
    my mind in getting my ideas out. I do enjoy writing however it
    just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost just trying to figure out how to
    begin. Any recommendations or tips? Thank you!
