  • Just to continue on the contradictions in any counselling process:-

    Treated as a normal person - do as you are told, you change and it will be better.

    Treated by someone with some knowledge - they will change with the Permanent Restriction (But it is not recognised until I am diagnosed).

    Treated with someone fully experienced in Autism/Asperger's - You have tried every coping mechanism under the sun, how the hell have you took it for so long?  Counsellor also saw the Mental Health Week displays in work - fully understands that is talking the talk with some damagers unable to walk the walk.
