A late-diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic female, in a long-term same-sex relationship. Learning to be ‘me' and trying to lose the mask.

Thousands of victims face the prospect of their abusers, including dangerous rapists, paedophiles and killers, being released from prison early under Labour's plans.

These are their stories ⬇️

Oh @PDJSwallow. It must be galling to know that it's actually your Govt which has stalled the re-build of #RoyalBerks Hospital, despite the vacuous pre-election promises of new Labour MPs in #Berks. We've all been had! Yet another @uklabour betrayal...

@GiveBloodNHS @NHS What do you expect if people can't get an appointment to give. The blood donation service is not helping themselves at all. See the comments on the BBC news page.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@craig_smithUK It certainly was. In fact the company I work for were saved from certain collapse.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@BobCook408 @GrumpyBstard_ Chances are they are using less.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@KimWebb44671708 @MadelineWa20933 @GrumpyBstard_ It’s not when you use fewer local services than the family next door.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@Dutch314 @GrumpyBstard_ Crap. They probably use fewer services and overall pay more into the local economy.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@GrumpyBstard_ I agree. My partner and I in a one bed flat are playing more per head then the five adults in the three bed house next door. Doesn’t help that we are a band B and they are only a C despite the fact they have a driveway and garage and a garden.

@Autistic_Lia The way I speak - my tone and communication style is considered to need changing. I got told off the other day for shouting on the phone by a GP ‘call handler’ I was standing by a main road with cars going by trying to explain why I was upset. She was really condescending.

[late_dx @DxLate]

We are not safe with any political party. I couldn’t stand Blair and Starmer is not leadership material. I am very despondent 😭

[Susan Rees 💚💚💚 @bobbybobbyrees]

@danielgoyal @roller18202802 Just a reminder....
We are still paying the debt from warmonger Blair's PFI fiasco!

@skeletorsbitch For me my diagnosis was an upsetting but also a relief to find that there was a reason for me not being able to find my place in the world.

@cattywhites2 @ginnymelons That’s disgusting. I hate Mac ‘n’ cheese. If I had ordered an omelette and had been given that I would have thrown up.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@NortherlyRose I agree. I am now my parents carer and due to this, I am also a carer for my Brother who has a learning disability and physical disability along with epilepsy and heart disease. I am so tired 😪

[late_dx @DxLate]

@AutisticDoctor I have been trying to explain similar at work. I get treated as if I am lying. Everything gets so upsetting.

[late_dx @DxLate]

@AutisticDoctor They have no idea at all. If it works for them, then it mushes work for everyone.
