quote "some of us have developed coping stategies and pass them on"
Yes, please 
That is the primary reason, I entered the forum and it should be a high focus area, but what cuts me up, is that the area I do not cope with are officialdom and authorities, the very vehicle which has been designed to support me. Example: You take the NAS, a mass organisation, a maze of confusion to what they actually do or don't do ? It is like speaking to a council or adminstration which blocks and creates autistic barriers by confusion and lack of guidance and assistance to others, so it is not autistic user friendly AND THATS THE NATIONAL ORGANISATION ? What gives ?
