Hi

Hi. I have autism, recently diagnosed, I'm very socially awkward because of the autism and I've also got anxiety. I still go to school, I'm 16 and in my final year now.

I'm from South East Wales, living with my dad and my step mum. I'm not sure I have a special interest. It might be science, I like science a lot. My favourite hobbies are reading (I'm a bookworm!) and I like gaming as well and watching TV and movies.

Nice to meet you and look forward to seeing you around.

    Hi KJ1234,

    I’m sorry you are going through such a tough time, it’s good that you’ve let us know how you feel. 

      

    If you are unable to cope with the distress or despair, it’s very important to tell someone about your feelings or thoughts of suicide. Call your GP and make an urgent appointment. Your GP can make sure you get appropriate help and support. 

      

    If it’s outside your GP hours call 111 to reach the NHS 111 service: 

    https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/urgent-and-emergency-care-services/when-to-use-111/ 

      

    The Samaritans also provide confidential non-judgemental emotional support, 24 hours a day on 116 123, or by email on jo@samaritans.org. 

      

    MIND have information pages on coping with self harm or suicidal feelings based on the experiences of people who’ve been through it that you may find helpful.  

      

    If you are very close to doing something to hurt yourself - call 999 now or go to your nearest A&E department. There should be someone there to support you and make sure you get ongoing support.
