Hello I am new
recently doctor has decided I probably have Aspergers
having difficulty finding a psychiatrist atm though to diagnose I am being bounced between doctors and ‘talk matters’
Just thought I would say hello I guess
Thank you Simon I’m sure it is
Hello welcome to the forum it’s a great community.
ok that changes things slightly i got my diagnosis to help my daughter, to not be afraid of coming forward. If she wants a diagnosis she can use me as proof that its in my family ( my mum is un-diagnosed ). So u getting a diagnosis sets down a marker for others in your family to use if need be.
but thats a small thing really
Thank you, I’m not ashamed or even fussed if I’m diagnosed with having anything, I don’t really feel the range of emotions people consider normal
I know everyone is different and my goal in time is to feel more towards my children and help them have a normal and productive life
ok then diagnosis vis NHS takes about 2 years ask your GP to refer u and just go through it --- the process with help spot where u are weak and that then can be worked on (By U ) to keep your clients. that is the only benefit to you.
you can just keep it to yourself if u get an autism diagnosis but they may also spot other things such as OCD, anxiety, ADHD.
well done on running your own business, pity about covid-19 that didnt help much.
if u are staying here dont put up anything that can identify u or your business. its just a forum rule.
apart from that enjoy your stay here
the interaction with people is probably making you exhausted but please keep going at your business ( after covid ) because its good for u to mix with others.
I usually do about 6-10 clients a week and don’t have to talk much as I mainly remove pubic hair, I talk to some and act as normally as possible, I must do okay because I do get good reviews but it does get exhausting
ok for u then a diagnosis would indicate the areas you are weak on and would have to manage ( yourself ).
do u have a sizeable number of cutomers (before covid )and could you handle them ok i mean no arguments or disputes no one says you are rude and u get good reviews ( facebook i am assuming u r on FB ?)
it just that some employers react badly to a diagnosis. so that is out of the way.
Not atm due to lockdown but I’m 2 years into working for myself in the beauty industry
are u working ? that is the first big question
Not sure what I want to talk about, no real interests or hobbies to say and no I can’t afford private
plus what does an actual diagnosis really do for you?
hi and welcome to this forum.
if you can add some details to your profile so people can connect with you more. ( favourite music,art,books,games,websites,videos,pets anything that interests you )
also as soon as you can change NAS69970 to a name and add a nice picture which means something to you
after a while move to the other discussions and feel free to take part.
I recommend you start your own discussion about things you want to talk about
are u able to go private and spend a 1000-1200 quid on a private diagnosis ?
I " cant afford that" is a perfectly good answer
if u are well off going private is a really good solution, but let us know if you are, as there are some really good people to go to.
