Hiya, this is the first time I've been here and learning the ropes as it were 
I am 32yr old woman or girl (as I still feel) and sadly still live at home with my lovely and supportive Mum.
I suffer with depression and social anxiety which I've been diagnosed with but the past 4 and half years I have been fighting for an Asperger's Syndrome assessment which always seems so close yet so far. I was told by my work's Dr when I worked for the NHS that I had a lot of traits and to research Asperger's which I did and almost recieved the assessment in my home town of Oldham until the team disbanded when funding was cut. Ever since I have had support from many who have tried to get me to that assessment outside of town, very frustrating.
I'm also in the process of having help with filling in my benefit form after my last prognosis of 2 years and being on ESA. I've been told the government are getting tougher so really apprehensive about it. Is anyone else in the process of this?
