Job advice

72827

Hi,

im currently in the process of being diagnosed but im also on long term sick from work, when I was at work I was being bullied and I was having meltdowns that led me to being in really dark places.

i need a new job but im so scared from going from what i know and thinking I won’t cope and I can’t keep doing this cycle it’s draining and honestly I don’t know if I can do it again. 

what can I do? I LOVE art but everything seems to wants qualifications or experience.

  • Dear 72827,

    It sounds like you are in a really difficult situation. I really hope the online community is a helpful resource for you during this time, I can see you have already had a really supportive reply. You are not alone with your struggles with employment, many autistic people have similar experiences and its great that you have reached out to get support. 

    I have included the NAS guidance on employment, there are a lot of different sections that might be helpful to look at:
