ORIGINAL: littlewonder If you can't communicate clearly then it's time to seek out a counselor. And the medical community HAS tried to help you but you refused the options they gave you. What exactly else do you expect them to do? It's therapy time dude. I keep getting referred for counselling, I was in for psycho sexual counselling and gender at one stage but it all got cancelled due to NHS cut backs and in the UK there is no help for late diagnosed adult ASD, bearing in mind we pay for our health care through taxation, therefore as paying we should get it and not be subject to being promised action and then having that taken away. But there is something else with the UK regards healthcare in that males are allocated the least spending, where it even was a past health minister explained this as women are more important than men through the fact women can bring up children on their own, men aren't needed. But it is men that provide the majority spending for the NHS through more men than women working. I refused SSRI because there is research to say they act differently with us, where my last experience of them, what I reported to my doctor he told me that doesn't happen, there is no reference to what you report in the drug notes, so I was ignored until I took myself off them because of what they were doing which included several very close calls with the cliff behind my house, where I have not been since, where it does say in the drug notes they can cause self destructive tendencies and I was scared of where I kept going. Where if there is any anger, it is directed at the uncaring profession for consistently failing me over the last 22 years, when I was first diagnosed as infertile through trying to discover amongst other things why I had sod all interest in being male, why my goolies didn't grow with puberty and why I could not build upper body strength and then again seven years later with a failing marriage, because of the umm sized goolies I suspected androgen deficiency and I wasn't wrong for endocrine tests revealed but the NHS did nothing except tell me to try harder and for my then wife to accept my limitations. Where with what I know now I suspect way back 22 years ago the uncaring service at least suspected I was what I am, but they did nothing. Everything I have discovered is through my own research aside from the ASD, where it was a university that discovered that along with a suggested IQ of 139, which is little use, but I researched X linked theories on autism to find a rare condition which fitted my other stuff and it was through a chest lump scare ( which turned out to be an infected milk duct), I requested a karyotype test to find what I did and then, it was silence - no further action, where their own guidelines describe immediate action on discovery of, where it was suggested through researching myself and discovering a rare condition I had unwittingly stepped on big toes. Body issues way back, infertility, failed marriage, communicational difficulties oh yeah and attempted murder and they seem to think everything is hunky dory one can live happily ever after, as it is either that or they really don't care. Now maybe it is I have an unrealistic belief in the medical profession, I don't know, but where they call themselves the caring profession, I would at least expect them to care, where my continuing experience is they appear not to. Counseling I need, I know that, but it's not happening. Edited to add, over the next day or so, I will reword my original post that got lifted and see if what I feel is consistent with what others- other males specifically think, where it could be what I feel after this thread, what I feel could be only applicable to my own experience perhaps because of communicational difficulties or even the IS status of myself where it is our brains are different to both male and female and so it could be others may not relate.
