Spooky. I got a call from the local mentall health team today, they had a copy of the letter I wrote to my GP to explain why I think I have AS, and they said that at that stage, they were inclined to agree with myself and the GP. The man I spoke to said that they will be in touch very soon to arrange the assesment. Was so happy spent I don't know how long flappin' and stimmin' out of sheer relief.
Anyway, I think what helped was that I wrote down everything I do or did that has a relevance to the DX, not just from my viewpoint, but also from my parents. (behaviours etc.) I wil take this with me again to refer to, as saying things out loud is not always as easy as writing them down.
That sounds good.I am glad someone is listening to you.After spending most of our lives having our "senses" denied as "real" it
is a relief for someone to say...hey,this is real,your real and there are other people having smiliar experiences.I just wish they offered adults more assistance after getting the DX.This is one of my future "goals".There are services for people with CD/alcohol issues and some(not enough)for those with mental health issues....we are being over-looked so that the big money raisers can pretend that HFA doesnt exist...only LFA,which needs to be exterminated...
.We are an "inconvenient truth".
I have to have everythign written out when dealing with people....they ask me something "abstract" and I just freeze up,not helpful.
