Hi all,
I’ve known for years that I am autistic, possibly with adhd as well. I received a letter from the local team yesterday basically saying that because I speak too well, i don’t have ritualistic behaviours (I don’t in public thanks mum.) and I don’t have in depth interests and show too much emotion that they won’t assess me. Every test I’ve done alongside my doctor has shown a need for it, is there any way to appeal or even get back on the waiting list? They’ve based their decision on a 30 minute appointment where I was shoving everything down so hard out of habit and find it difficult to talk about the issues I have because they were always disregarded when I was younger.
tThey don’t see the meltdowns, they don’t see me struggling with conversation because people get annoyed when I can’t talk about anything but my interests because it’s all I think about, how I shut down when I get too stressed.
i think I just needed to get this off my chest really. I’m fed up of being dismissed because I don’t act the way they want me to when I’m in public. That I had to learn to hide it because I’d get in trouble if I didn’t. I’m struggling big time right now and I just want to know if I’m being a baby over it.
i think the nhs is just refusing everyone by default now as they are too busy striking all the time instead of doing their jobs, and their striking has caused a huge backlog and people dying in the hospital coridoors....i think its time we banned their ability to strike right? .... i mean if they refuse to save dying people and neglect the publics health, they refuse blank out to diagnose you, why should they be paid anything at all let alone strike for even more pay for doing nothing?
Mate. if you ban doctors from striking, they will just quit en masse and go to work somewhere else. Do not forget that an UK trained MD can find a better job almost everywhere in the world. We had the same problem in my country. Now, almost every doctor working in the public sector is either a total moron or just too old to expatriate.
let them quit.... their hearts are clearly not in the right place for the job... if they want to chase money, if they was in it for money and not for helping people, then never mind letting them quit, just fire them instead and tell them to buy a lottery ticket, or tell them to go to america where the doctor wages are high because its a private system and thats what they based their expectations of wages on...they need to get what they want correct... if they want high wages like american doctors, then they need a private system like america... if they are striking to have american wages then their strikes are demanding us to be forced to a private system. what i see is the general public are too stupid to realise that these strikes they are doing are essentially strikes to change the nhs to a private system so they can be paid more... thats what it is... the general public support them thinking its the nhs and nothing more of it... they dont think... the public is dumb... these strikes for doctors to be paid as much as american doctors are essentially strikes that is demanding we make the nhs into a private healthcare system.. that is the end result of the strikes..
I officially give up
no, i said the nhs strikers are striking for privatisation.... you support strikers... you support privatisation... simple?and america has things similar to the nhs... it has medicaid which is essentially the same..... then the dems tried to make obama care and claimed that was gonnas be their nhs.... but obama care actually caused a effect that rose private medical insurance as then everyone paying private also had to pick up the bill for poorer people covered under obama care so it caused private insurance to skyrocket... from my american friend who told me and complained about his insurance going up due to obama care.
Seriously?
OK, I am going to spell the concept at a fifth grade level.
Private insurance cheap now, because NHS. They have to keep prices down, otherwise nobody will buy insurance.
When NHS no more, only private insurance.
Private will raise price to American level.
You will be able to afford only the lowest tier insurance, and those insurance cover almost nothing.
Try check American health insurance. Expensive. Very expensive. Cheap insurance cover nothing.
Me no socialist. Me everything but socialist. Me only able to do some basic accounting. You not.
Sorry, cannot spell it any simpler.The funniest thing is that you will vote for the NHS privatization, then you will be the one crying because you cannot afford insulin with a minimum wage. Look up insulin prices in the US.
