I am fed up having no where to live. I was made homeless at 13 and in and out of foster care. Now I am 31 and am FORCED to live in a house share full of druggies, there is no ventilation and i am FORCED to breath in class a drug smoke every night, even though I have never taken drugs in my life. I feel frightened to use the bathroom cos its shared. I unable to use the kitchen.
I have Autism, Generalized Anxiety Disorder and C-PTSD and I will soon be getting Enhanced Daily Living and Standard Mobility PIP. But, NONE of that matters cos I can't find a place to live. and the pure evil local council here refuse to help with housing. I am living in Neath, Wales and I am from Hull, England. So clearly I am being discriminated here in Wales for being English.
HOW are people who are former care leavers and live a solitary life meant to get a guarantor for a ONE BEDROOM. I might as well end my life at this point.
Have you tried the Intetgrated Autism Service?They are based in Wales. ×
I WAS with the Integrated Autism Services, but they discharged and instead put me with the so called "CMHT (Community Mental Health Team). I never had any support with my Autism, it took them 16 years to get the diagnoses, it was suspected by CAMHS and Social Workers when I was 13 but got diagnosed at 30 and it took 7 years to convince PIP i had Autism.
