I am in the middle of the diagnostic process. After my first appointment they put me forward for the full length evaluation but also sent me an email inviiting me to use a 'Social Prescribing' service. I am now having issues with work and associated mental health and I decided to get into contact. I've been put in contact with the autism specialist 'link worker' and was wondering if anyone else had been sent to this service and if so what it involved.
As far as I can tell it appears to be a service to improve wellbeing of people whose issues are not necessarily purely clinical in nature. So support in the issues that you're facing in order to improve overall wellbeing.
Has anyone experienced this?
Was it helpful? Is there anything you think I should be aware of before talking with my link worker?
