Has Any Adult on the Spectrum Recieved Any Help from NAS

Paull

Has any adult here and on the spectrum recieved any direct help at all from NAS ?

I mean direct help - not just advise or directing to other places.

  • The only time I rang the helpline was for advice for my youngest child, she hadn't yet got a diagnosis and because of that they refused to help.

    I emailed them a query about my own situation once, it took them many months to reply and when they did it was just containing links to information I already had.  They didn't physically offer to help, by way of either contacting the NHS department I was having trouble with or writing a letter on my behalf or supporting me in any way.

    I recently became a member.  It was mostly to get the autism alert card.
