I’m a 52 year old male, I’ve been unable to find a job for over four years now and this year my long term relationship ended. I live on my own and apart from my Mum, who is elderly, I have no one else in my life. I’ve tried to find support, registered with work help groups and volunteer when I can, but it’s getting harder and I see very little opportunities for the future.
I live in Sheffield and wanted to ask if anyone could recommend a support group or anything similar, as my attempts have been exhausted. I have tried NHS Autism, but they told me they no longer have any legal obligations to support me. My long term Doctor who first recognised my Autism retired this year and now the surgery see me more as a low priority patient. I tried one group, but found the atmosphere very tense and argumentative between factions attending.
If anyone has a suggestion or recommendations, it would be appreciated. Please, no website links that stipulate help guides or information on what to do. I need to talk with people and try to find actual resources, not just words.
Thank you
