Hi, I have just contacted scope. I have autism spectrum disorder and ptsd, I'm so glad to finally feel like I'm getting somewhere, all the charity numbers for autism support have been closed due to lack of funding or covid so I'm so grateful for this place. Anyway... Hi! How's everyone? Anyone else having trouble accessing services?

I am okay, thank you. A bit cold and rainy weather... Can't wait when it's over. Although sunday was really hot and sunny till bout 1pm

It is always raining here, I was in Estonia with my husband and his side of family last year in winter, loads of snow! I miss it so much... There's no proper winter here lol

Snow is nice . I do not mind snow But not when it is cold and it rains I heard good things about Estonia. Heard it is beautiful out there.

Hi @Musi
Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined us.
We certainly aren't closed so that's a good sign! I also have autism spectrum disorder myself.
Is there anything, in particular, you are trying to seek support with? Just wondering how I can help best!
In the meantime, you may particularly benefit from our discussion sections about autism and neurodiversity (https://forum.scope.org.uk/categories/learning-disabilities-and-autism) and mental health and wellbeing (https://forum.scope.org.uk/categories/mental-health-issues).
Take care for now and I will look forward to hopefully hearing from you again soon!Community Volunteer Adviser with professional knowledge of education, special educational needs and disabilities and EHCP's. Pronouns: She/her.

I have made so many calls today feeling so overwhelming.. I don't want to go to meltdown again trying to cope as best I can but I need some help ? -
Do not worry, everything will be ok
My mate bit a police officer back in a day when he was drunk, and he had a court case but he didn't end up in jail for this

You do not remember, so you were probably ****??
Still that does not look like a reason to be sent to a jail... Suspended sentence would be a maximum I bet
this is really silly thing to get worried about.
But well, I hope it all goes well for you anyway...

Yeah, it might be different because it is not a first time...
Actually I am not sure if my mate hasn't spent 1 month in a prison for biting a police officer. I have completely forgot... :-(
I hope all goes well for you thouygh
-
I hope it goes ok to... Hopefully it's going to be just a bigger fine this time, I'm trying to get a social worker or key worker or something, and they were supposed to help me with that last time but didn't.. Just sorta forgot about me, anyway they can't say I'm not trying.
-
I have heard stories about support workers in the UK from a lot of english people and they all say they're nothing but useless and trouble makers...
-
Great! That makes me feel better ?? lol.. Anyway I'm just going to try not to think about it too much
-
Well, it is one of these things you can't control and all you can do is to stay positive and think that everything will be ok
And think that there is a guardian angel somewhere that protects you from evil
-
Thanks, that makes me feel a little better, I've had sleep now so I'm thinking more clearly ?
-
Hi @Musi I'm glad to hear you are feeling a bit better this morning, but I was sorry to read that you're not feeling supported with your autism. What sort of support do you feel would help at the moment?I don't really see the G.P that much as I have trust issues with them.
Can I ask what sparked these trust issues? If you'd like to talk about it privately then you're welcome to send a private message or email: community@scope.org.uk if it's easier.

My trust issue with the G.P stems from years of misdiagnosis, not listening to me when I said I thought I had some ASD problems, writing down notes wrong, telling me there's nothing wrong with me and just pull myself together.. And recently messing with my husband driving licence when he tried to change from EU to UK, then not admitting fault in anything.. He lost his job because of it, we just started to get our lives back on track now.. But yeah that's why I don't trust them
-
I used to be naive and trust too easily, now they have to earn my trust, and sorry they haven't
