Son is 25 but not mentally has learning difficulties from a short illness when he was 18 months old

autistic maybe trying to get a diagnosis

falling the trap of being lonely looking at porn and taken it further because he doesn't fully get it and says he feels very disconnected to it all and life

want to get him some help but have no idea where to go next as he's got all these other issues, depression also to top it off since he was about 18

his fathers family have a history of mental health problems

Hi,

Sorry you find yourself here... did your son get any information from the police on support... some really good charities out there to support you and your son.. also could the officer in charge refer to liaison and diversion... they can really help with autism referrals and support...even feeling helpless there is support out there just takes a little time to find it.. take care
