Well my post diagnosis was messy and the mute shut down and rejection of alll medical assistance was the out working of a failier of response that is typical of the mental health provisions in surrey. the few people I saw were ok and the psychiatrist did get me a step along but i was wel annoyed that his paper work was nessacary to qualify what i had been bleeting on about for years anf even now the system has let me drift off because i was traumatise dby the 40 questions it takes to get an assesment to go on the 18 month waiting list for therapy. PLEASE
So how was i exumed from my silence and driven from my pyjamas and the doldrums of indifferent failier and the contemplations of my own execution that I willing ly considered and rejected to continue what I saw as fsithful but self detructive choice to live.
Well She is called Foxy anad she is the dumped dog who escaped the battersey death nell, to become my little world of sucess on a different world view of things.

I am up at 4 to keep the floor dry and when she eats I remember to, her walks and my medication go together and all in all we are a good team, I have to be the boss and eat first and have learned to shout or bark when I am not happy with realy bad behaviour, I am the one who is at the training classes she is well smart and had to go up a class.
The staff at the school responded in fine style to my iam autistic card and a few of them have first hand experience and experts in the friend and family line who would consult to help my challenges, which was overwhelming on the first day.
http://adolescentdogs.com/ have been exelent in their understanding and have been keen to help me keep a sfe and happy doe mostly I needed reassuring that i wass not breaking her in some way.
So I was lead out of the rock under which I crawled realy by a small bright inteligent Little Red Dog, called Foxy.

When ther are no languages to bridge the devide it is the best of us as animals that we have in common, it is sad that we despise this beauty in ourselves as base and of no value or function, for I think it is the very antidote to all that ails us as a result of the toxicity of the life we call modern.
sticking to the point, pain and injury, can be about the emotional terrets side od ASD if O gets adrenaline sqeltches then that can play a part in the whole thing with all the effects of adrenaline, the shaking and the rigid tention in the body, and sweating of great like if it is in the make up all of thiss out of contro; is a lot to understand. Shock is a curve ball for the ASD mind and takes a lot to know the reasons for the ways of the body in the different senarios.
My mum was all full of matter and fact and more anatomy and physiology than grays anatomy in its first print.
So I just got told the facts and how I was working and when the tears went and they did fast as there is no need to be silly. All this knowledge was very reassuring and got me a long way, another string to my bow that has me the nick name DR amd I have diagnosed many and illness before the real ones and saved a life or two as well. Another subject for the home class room, bodies give loads of material for studdy and can be fun with a microscope, biology at its best, chrismas ideas a coming, different coloured hairs, skin, papre cut with different things too a real start to the csi in your front room.
Back to bumps and bruises, it can be about the unknown and Pain so fuel confidence by embracing it as your new best friend and get busy with the collins mini guides to lots of different subjects.
Pain is a big subject but if you don't make a big deal then it tends to follow thats how children will follow in their perceptions.
Pain is your friend it will remind you, you are alive and get you to somewhere safe.
