Hello this is my first discussion on here, and I thought someone might be able to help me out.
I have a diagnosis of high functioning aspergers syndrome and A-typical Bipolar on the side and I am 18 years old. I have suffered alot socially and educationally, I have been through quite alot of experiences including being admitted to a mental health hospital and am now in a special needs school that meets my needs.
I had the idea of starting my own business (only technical term want it to be more personal). Using my full life experience of day to day living, going through the system, my education and socialising I want to create an affordable service doing the following:
Firstly providing advice and support for people on the specturm as I can understand in a different way to people who may be a therapist but have not got the condition, and also to parents who are really struggling with their child and maybe even provide this service to organisations.
Through doing this having been there, done that got the T-shirt I have many contacts who people would really benefit knowing so could liason work.
Lastly I had the idea of giving autism awareness training to organisations who may not have the biggest knowlege and\or experience of it.
So I just ask for what your general advice is and I apeal to all different types of people when asking, I feel in this position this would be somthing I would be so down to earth about. I also ask how would I go about getting to this stage. I am also wanting to go to university and maybe there is a course that could relate to this.
Thank you and please be honest for it would help me very much
