barnet mental health trust no longer works with people with ASD

so after having to fight to get a proper assessment so that i could get targeted help, having got that barnet mental health trust have now chnaged it's rules and now no longer offers help to people on ASD

this seem like discrimination to me, i now have to go and get my GP to go and argue with the main NHStrust or something, so basically it won;t happen

i suffer from sever depression and anxiety and although my psychs help has been limited, he has at least made me feel that i'm not on my own, he told me today that he can no monger accept appointments to see me as i am ASD, he doesn't agree with this but this is what BMHT have told him...

surely this cannot be right, i now have nowhere to go...

  • he was quite clear, the position they are taking is that these other co morbid symptoms need specialised help they say they cannot give and so that's that.

    he will be sending me this in writing

    btw i am aware of my rights, but to be frank i am beaten into submition and really don't have the will anymore, the last few years have taken their tole

    i've already told someone from NAS about this who said he would talk to my psych/trust, but the psych said he had not been contacted

    i have no faith in NAS either

    to be frank if i did not have a family i would not be here anymore...
