• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hello,
I have a 24 year old son who has Asperger's / highly functioning autism. We currently live in Tennessee, but have the ability to relocate pretty much anywhere to find somewhere where he can be happy. Our "perfect" solution would be a Christian community where others like him live in an apartment building or individual houses, and there is someone there to supervise everyone, but where there is still a high degree of independence. We would be interested in forming such a community if others in a similar situation have been thinking about and praying for something like this. He can live by himself, but still needs supervision and companionship. The next best thing would be to find a church or group where he could find friendship. I am open to any suggestions. Feel free to post, or email me at tim@chapelhillnews.net
Thank you!
