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...

  • Pete,

    It is interesting you quote in your last post "to help me stay in work as i'm good at what i do...",,, under the ASD asperger traits,, work function can be everything because it familiar and an specialist environment , so people with Aspergers(cough, cough... me !) are work minded probably to an obsessive perfectist degree.

    If you are suffering from anxiety and depression it could be due to the work area changing in some way which normally brings about ASD burnout, breakdown or washed out, normally with an added social pressure, aka the psychoboss.

    Aspies need work, but the work needs to be constant and in a good environment.

    Just some thoughts that may interest you.
