Whilst replying to a thread i created the other day i heard the flap of the letterbox thud as the post dropped through the door, i try not to be afraid of the post these days, the fear of those brown envelopes is consuming and soul destroying, so i carried on replying to a complex thread, mid reply i took a pause, made a cup of tea and retrieved the post; no brown envelope, phew, a slightly chunky white one though so i opened it and as i did i saw the logo of my letting agent. my first thought was oh its that time of year again, tenancy must be up for renewal.
How wrong was i?
It was a notice to vacate my home for the past 10 years. A 'No fault eviction'. I quickly finished the reply, posted it and broke down. I spent most of my 20s homeless and living on the streets, i can't do it again at 42, i just can't.
I havn't recovered and i dont think i will. This is the time this evil tory government will introduce me to my very own cliff edge, fly lil birdie, fly.
I've been undergoing the fake 'needs assesment' process with social services and an advocate for the past year at least, i know i wont get any help from them, i will be forced onto the streets whilst they overlook the process fully aware that i have no family in the area (i live 150 miles from 'home' and not by choice, corrupt social services in my hometown forced me here to stop the systemic abuses within their facilities being further exposed, which came to light recently), i have 1 friend who is my de facto carer, who is unlikely to be able to deal with this situation, i have no 'savings'. It is also very likely i will lose my benefits which we fought hard for and were only got in january, new address = new claim now. All the avenues that people assume are available are now either controlled opposition (look into gagging clauses, DWP, esther mcvile), totally gone or are being dismantled. You have no access to the justice system, in essence, no rights. Oh and did i mention i have an auto immune condition that flares up and exacerbates my ASD and totally cabbages my brain :( FFS
The organisations that claim to be our representitives are fully complicit in this process and i am very sure bound by similar gagging clauses within their contracts that the DWP and McVile use.
Lets be perfectly frank for a change eh?
Metrics to measure the success of a project claiming to have the best interests of people on the spectrum (or any organisation making such claims on behalf of a group) must surely include, Life Expectancy and Cause of Death.
54.Suicide. Where is the commitment to RADICALLY change that statistic?
I'm sure its getting worse.
And not a fecking PEEP out of NAS (created in 1962 remember, so TOTALLY on their watch), no efforts to organise, no efforts to create a 'class action' case (they have a different name here which i cant recall), the Autism act isnt worth the velum its written on, its even too rough to wipe your *** with.
The only people whose lives are supported BY autism are NTs
£100 million per year. Thats just NAS.
I don't want to die, i want to live, i have a lot to give, but we are pushed that far into the periphery that there is very little chance of acceptance let alone being afforded the same chances as NTs, i hope with all my heart that i am wrong and that i will be helped but bitter experience tells me different, our lives mean *** all.
You ok?
I’ve even given up on trying to get help nobody wants to listen all professionals are crap they don’t know what goes on in people’s minds,I’m now just going to concentrate on my crap job.They only see what’s on the outside they probably think we’re making it up.So much for the government so called new understanding on mental health issues it ok if you’re super rich
P.s yes it’s a bugger and friggin annoying to keep fighting. Also in the Ian drury sense of being a clever *** people do oft assume that you havd capability skills x 10. Even with stuff you’ve never had to deal with before
Adopt Cleese’s feather boa and you’ll be able to tickle the tasererererer... the tasering would surely take your voice up an octave...
so, have you the confidence in balls, brains and curlers to feel you’ll be able to stave off homelessness and stay put?
I think accuracy is needed here, john cleese looks far too stunning
This would more than likely be closer to the truth.
Which would also find me tasered and locked up.
Oh well i'll just have to be mee.
Apologies for the gender confusion. I’m often mistaken for human but I am in fact and elephant...I can’t talk too loudly as they may find me in the room and my cover will be blown!
I hope a momentary visualisation of yourself as a woman has provided at least some respite and enjoyment! Hey... now there’s a thought... in the top trumps of protected groups would you attend the meetings dressed as a woman.. ??.
transgender may have a larger top trumps score than being Aspie!
Hmm, i actually find articulate, intelligent women very attractive, till theyre mad with me. Oh, hang on, you know i'm a bloke right? i'm imagining a female version of me and its freaking me out.
The assesment lady was lovely tbh it wasnt a heated thing, i said that to her because she was nice. Truth to power takes many forms, the gentle message is often the hardest hitting.
Regardless of your height and physical strength there is nothing more frightening than an articulate woman who knows her voice
Unfortunately most of those things would actually end up with me getting tasered and locked up.
I AM herculean, im 6'6 and built like a shire horse which is why they struggle to accept i need help (recurring theme of life, too smart, too big) which is why i have to have an advocate for some things, i cannot keep my mouth shut when faced with abusive authority dishing out injustice (always polite (unless im PANDA'd up) concise and thought provoking).
During one WCA i told the lady, in the most nicest way possible about aktion t4 and how she should quit her job and save her soul. I genuinely think she did and i hope she's much happier now :D
You’re certainly not a seal, maybe a mountain goat! Yes, Herculean strength, super titanium mask, chest out, elbows out and hyper focused on the detail.
are you planning to get the eviction notice overturned or happy just to get alternate accommodation?
Glad you’re logging everything... it might be worth taking notes. Maybe ask them to sign what’s been agreed upon?
LOL N A Z I is a banned word, oh my.
Its been done..... twice. And a further time they tried to administratively dump me by making an appointment..... for the day before i received the letter, then the week after pushing a hand written note through pretending it was from the week before saying if they hadnt heard from me they would assume i didnt need help. So MP was rung. Advocate put in place, assesment done properly 2 3 weeks ago (i also went through this last year with another advocacy service who PRETENDED to ask for a needs assesment but didnt do anything. They subsequently lost their contract. (some of these advocates are being paid to subvert the process, capita has been exposed to be undertaking the assesments for at least 1 council)
Ive documented EVERYTHING. The PIP assesment alone is damning, all filmed and shows the out and out lies. When i told dwp i filmed it they 'reviewed' my case and awarded PIP. When ALL of this comes out in court (i mean my whole life story) some people are going to have to answer some questions. They will lie and lie and lie, which is why i record EVERYTHING, like EVERYTHING.
PDA ODD ADHD INTP Aspie rules. i'll hoist the feckers by their own petards.
I just have to find a way to let the organised aspie sort everything out. oh and not be homeless.
What time is the calling happening?
Have you detailed what support you need in writing or are they the ones that take notes?
We are currently at the zenith of the support i have recieved, so far 4 people are employed to do precisely feck all.
I have an advocate, well 2 actually, lovely as they are (and probably reading this :s) they are dealing with a system that is designed to deny assistance.
There is an OT. No idea what her purpose is, and a scary social worker who wants to spit in my face.
The advocate will be calling tomorrow to discuss this.
CAB, healthwatch etc are the collaborators, this is how the N A Z I S got away with it, aktion t4 in its first outing was WCA and sanctions on the disabled.
Rather than help you mount legal challenges againt the gov these organisations steer you away from that and basically tip off the service you are having issues with so they buck up.
These are thatchers bastards we are dealing with and kinnocks words are a million times truer now.
"If Margaret Thatcher wins on Thursday, I warn you not to be ordinary. I warn you not to be young. I warn you not to fall ill. I warn you not to get old."
There’s no hurry....you’re actually a person and not a performing seal
Heads fucked ill reply soon
Hi Perdu...sorry to catch you with the shock of such transformational news.
is there really no support? Have you ever used citizens advice.
like you, I’ve had times homeless and has also felt a hobo of not fitting in or finding “home” as of yet. Having been yin your house for 10 years is a long long time x
