barnet mental health trust no longer works with people with ASD

peterainbow

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...

  • thanks autismtwo for the help, sadly don't seem to get any help even when asked for, the maudsely were very good and recommended various things which were then ignored by my local trusts. sadly i have got into a confrontational situation i think, but thats the nature of the ASD beast sometimes isn't it. wish i'd realised earlier in my lifei was autistic as now it seems to late to have that knowledge and i wish the trusts/nhs actually put into place proper strategies as tey are required by law to do. i was talking to someone from the NAS/prospects about getting me back to my job, but seems to have stopped and to be honest what happened at the job was a mess. anyway will be seeing the GP next week and see what he says, bloody stupid that i'm not given support to help me stay in work as i'm good at what i do...
