Hello im Val
Ive been in and out of the mental health system since the age of 19, im now 50yrs young.
Any help given to me I get so far then its all pushed away.
I struggle to explain myself to them, the words never come.
, I fail to correct them so it all leads to a false image of me to them, they get angry they dont want to help anymore.
My sister wants me to be diagnosed for Autism, she sees a lot of autism signs, she knows a lot about it as her daughter is autistic.
NHS wont help, my Dr tells me to go private, i here it can cost thousands it just seems like a dead end for me.
Lockdown has in a way been a break from the pressures of life but yet im pushed into doing things that need done that cant be avoided.
Im mentally drained, lonely and lost.
I think I just want to be heard and understood just once and accepted for who i am.
