Hi from Wales

Leni

Hi,

I'm a 50 year old woman who was diagnosed last year. I'm currently going through a separation, so grateful for any advice on how to cope with things like mediation and the stress of numerous legal questions. I would love to speak to others who have gone through this as well.

I live near the sea and enjoy a quieter life by working from home. In my spare time I like watching films, walking, reading and writing fiction.

Hoping to meet new autistic friends here.

  • Hi and welcome to the 'Latelings' club.

    Sorry I can not offer anything regarding legal issues or even talk about my experiences of lawyers.

    Scotland can be a wonderful place at times. I am amazed you found Edinburgh less busy in August. That is when the festival is on Laughing.

    Does anyone know any good legal services for us autistics?

    Hello Mr T and thank you for the welcome!

    We were actually staying about an hour south of Edinburgh so just went in for the day, and yes it was crazy busy, but manageable as we went back to the sleepy town we were staying in that evening.

    Thanks for the shout out for legal services. In my experience, I've found a lot of the separation process totally unfriendly towards neurodivergent people - 90 minute mediation sessions with no break etc. It's made me want agree to anything just to have the process end. I've been asked by my ex's solicitor why autism is a barrier to work, why ND children have more or different needs to NT children. It's been endless!

    It's been a pleasure to find this site, and I'm sure others must be going through similar.

    Anyway, nice to meet you.
