So, apparently I don't have Autism

stranger

I was told this morning that I don't have Autism, I shouldn't be attending the Autism group (apparently, only people with a diagnosis can attend these - not what I've been told by the branch officer) and counselling will solve everything.

The person who told me this, hardly knows me and claims it's self esteem and confidence that need sorting out.

She's meant to be disability support.

    I would put in a written complaint to the branch officer and higher, including (if possible) a letter from your GP.
