How to find an Autism trained doctor ?

How do you find a real GP doctor ? who understands your condition and can treat you with sensitive because you are hypersensitive to pain in the body ? With the emotional overload and social relationship problems with a doctor(trust, not knowing them as people), can you find a DOCTOR WHO IS A REAL DOCTOR ? basically empathic, listening, compassionate and most importantly accessible without the barriers of phoning for an appointment, waiting for an appointment, speaking to the docs receptionists, waiting in crowded waiting rooms, speaking to the doctor who you do not know, explaining your symptoms without anxiety.

CAN YOU GET SUCH A THING AS A SPECIAL NEEDS DOCTOR GP ?

  • Thanks Crystal, I will speak to my GP, because this issue really has me feeling isolated and vulnerable. Even just to talk about it,, would be a step forward, instead of me feeling locked into a stress cycle of conflict. They need to understand, phoning NHS 24, going to see a doctor when vulnerable, calling an ambulance, even having ambulance crew visit me or touching me, the flashing lights and noise of an ambulance, going into a hospital and ward,, IS TOTAL TERRIFYING, so I am panic and projecting the outcome before it even happens to try and protect myself, so I end up in I need help but I am scared of help.. DOES THE NT'S OR NAS EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT HERE ?

    I have similiar issue with breaking down on a motorway, or needing the toilet in a strange place,, IT IS THE PEOPLE CONTACT I AM AFRAID off and there control over me, especially if I am feeling vulnerable at time or I can not get away from them somehow.

    Thank you again Crystal Smile
