If the path leading to the magic kingdom in the sky split into two directions, which way would you choose, left or right? Why?

Whst lead up to your AS diagnosis?

My primary school wanted to send me to special needs education back in the late 1980's. One of my teachers said to my mother they thought I was brain damaged and that it was an act of god punishing her for divorcing my father....yeah she ended up with senile dementia so clearly not on gods favourite side there stupid mrs baker

When I had a statutory assessment done on me they found my IQ was in excess of the top 2% of the UK population (my grandfather was 0.5% so clearly ive been dumbed down with some genes) and basically the school got put in their place that they were the ones at fault. Still had no answers as to why I was abit of an oddity at school, my aunts partner who happened to have been trainned in aspergers and segmatic pragmatic at the time (when Lorna wing was doing her work about aspergers before it became an official diangosis) she reckoned I was Segmatic pragmatic (if your going to be misdiagnosed this is by far the next best thing from a proper asperger diagnosis) By pure luck when I was assessed again I saw a locum instead of the normal one who reckoned I had aspergers, went to see professer Patricia Howlin who formally diagnosed me with Aspergers around 1992 making me one of the first to be diagnosed in the UK and probably the first in Hertfordshire though ive not been able to confirm that, would be interesting to find out anyway

After that it was a battle through education. Spent my seconday (what you will call high school) catching up with what my primary school failed to teach me properly, basic english grammer, maths etc so I had to play a catch up game as well as do my GCSE's

Laz, I understand you are a student nurse. How do you compare the level of drug addiction among health providers (eg doctors, those with access to drugs) to the general population. Do you think it's very high? I mean do you encounter many drug addicted doctors?

Well my branch of nursing is not based in hospitals and what we would call primary health care settings. Learning disability nursing is more a super hybrid of a nurse, teacher, social worker and health promoter all in one really and we tend to be more community based then in the hospitals. I do not tend to encounter docotors very often its mostly nurses of various specialisations, education and a social services mostly.

In the past there used to be quite serious issues with medical students and doctors who had become addicted to vallahum, ive seen that indirectly but it seems the problem is more now with doctors taking amphetamines to cope with the long hours involved in front line hospital services such as A&E etc.

I would say the biggest problem I encounter with doctors is that they have a complete lack of understanding or their own flaws in communication and a very vague understand of mental health problems which are probably causing untold damage to the population who end up on anti-depressents simply because the doctor is unable to really know how to cope with someone who presents mental health problems.
