It is obviously out of order for budgeting decisions in NHS and Scottish government to leave no diagnosis service functioning at all for aspie adults in Aberdeen. So that some who can afford so have even been paying hundreds of pounds (which go towards what the hell?) for private diagnoses.
This is one of the places that has a drop-in One Stop Shop since the second round of them opening. It is practising well, setting a good standard, by extending help to adults who can't access diagnosis. The whole scene should think so.
Adults who were not picked up as kids, wherever they are, are visibly entitled to be recognised now and supported the same as they can see happening in other places such as here in Edinburgh. A service's existence in another location is factual evidence and grounds to cite your entitlement to it too. Referrals out of area should be happening to obtain diagnoses. Where is Aberdeen's local autism plan, it's required to have one, addressing sorting this scandal out?
