JaxI don't have the courage to go to #autscape (too many years of being a failed non autistic, and still chipping away at feeling like a fake #autistic) but there's a fantastic initiative here to fundraise for places for autistics of colour. https://www.gofundme.com/f/equity-at-autscape?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all&utm_source=customer
Ferrous@Liveotherwise there's nothing like Autscape for validating the reality of your autism, if that's any help.
@ferrous I discussed going a while ago with one of my friends, but can't afford it anyway so it's academic.
@Liveotherwise dang. It is particularly expensive this year.
Have you looked at the bursaries though?
@ferrous I have difficulties asking for help/completing forms. Part executive function, part anxiety.
Yesterday's 90 minute work capability call was a lot of fun around those areas.
@Liveotherwise extremely relatable, alas.
@ferrous have never managed to get further than requesting PIP form 😂😭
