Im afraid of committing to anything like a job or a course I cannot do. I know I’m not good at art, computers stuff like that or anything to do with my hands. I’m on disability allowance I would love to do something with my life but at the same-time I’m afraid of losing my only income.
I’m on disability allowance and I’m sort of nervous of losing this income because it’s my only source of income. I assume my payment would be frozen if I take up a Course with NLN so I’m sort of nervous of this. I would like to do more with my life but at the same time I’m aware that NLN might or might Not be a good fit for me.
If I went to guess I would say it went ok i feel a lot of the work with gaining access to services relies on my own efforts rightly or wrongly. I would say I’m in the slightly unpopular group that would argue people need different approaches, etc. what do disability services have to offer adults with autism or ADHD.
I find using disability services very complicated slow and they can feel like they lack direction.
People might be very caring within these services but it’s patchy I don’t know if I finally trust them however I’ve seen people diagnosed later in life having less problems than myself.
(Maybe this isn’t always the case)
Certain people are so kind and helpful others keep asking for information in which I either don’t have or mightn’t be comfortable sharing yet.
I’m happy to give information about my diagnosis however I feel this can lead to more and more questions.
So far I’ve been told these is a service however I will be on a waiting list I believe this to be honest information at the moment however I don’t have tons for money for psychologist etc to re-enter my situation today as I already know the answer.
I feel when people find out I was early in life they don’t want to know me this might not be true but I get this impression anyway.
