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.

  • With my autism, I need predictable events and outcomes or my stress and anxiety kicks in. Jumping benefit hoops every 6 months or so, waiting for letters, etc, IS KILLING ME.

    quote"I just cannot understand when people have official diagnoses why you need to qualify your health and don't just get the benefits automatically".

    That is why I am really angry ! But I have a good coping strategy,, now,, I just tell them now I see it,, poor doctors, benefit people,, because I need to release the anger THEY CAUSE !!!!!!!!!!  I AM SORRY BUT UNTIL THE BASTARDS RECOGNISE THE DAMAGE THEY DO TO AUTISTIC PEOPLE AND OTHER VULNERABLE PEOPLE, MY WRATH WILL CONTINUE AND I PRAY FOR A REVOLUTION IN THIS COUNTRY. LET LONDON BURN. IT IS THE ONLY WAY BECAUSE THEY DON'T GIVE A ***.

    Sorry guys, but all I can do is scream now, I don't have the emotional energy to cope with there benefit maze. I wish they would all just *** off.
