What are the criteria with AS to get DLA?

IntenseWorld

Has anybody with ASD (adult) got DLA and what rate is normally awarded for AS?  I haven't had a reply yet but my eldest's DLA was refused so now I don't hold much hope that they will grant mine.

I would have thought it's short-sighted though because the cost of appeals is massive."

    I agree,, I should have been getting DLA for years, but was not well enough to appeal, I got a bit of help from the benefit worker because it got to the stage were I could not fill in forms, answer anymore questions, THE BENEFIT SYSTEM PUT ME IN A STATE OF SHOCK AND CONFUSION, so much for getting assistance to working, even can't even design a decent human claim system,, they have taken that much emotional energy off me now, that I would not trust the bastards with anything now. I am now in state of freeze up when it comes to benefits,, but maybe that is the way the governmental scum want it to be, so I can't claim anything. THE GOVERNMENT SYSTEM IS SO INHUMAN, I feel like a labelled and processed piece of cattle in a herd.

    As far as I am concern, I have been officially diagnosed with Autism and a mirade of secondary conditions, OCD, GAD, IBS, DEPRESSION, so why do I have to even go through there satanic hoop jumping system ?
