High functioning label harmful

Please watch my honest conversations on why the high functioning label is harmful & why its outdated & it stops us getting support or help in the community or access. The local authority ( Council & adult social services use this against us to stop us getting help or support or into our community. 

Its stuck on us on purpose & should be eradicated & not go by high or low needs. All autistic folk should have help. With this HF label it means ( your apparently ok & can do fine & with no help) hence its mild & not serve enough. Which is wrong. 

I was a late dual diagnosis of Autism 2017 & adhd 2021. And being told ooo you have coped for so long independently on your own. I was misdiagnosed bpd..hense proper diagnosis of both in later life in my 30s. 

Not everyone can afford to contribute towards private care or care . My LA wanted £78 a week for once a month for a daycenter workshop. Ie £320 that was the whole of my pip. Not about caring on my other finances for transport or certain food or the rare day out to London to an art gallery just to enjoy myself. I hate that this HF label is held against us & no help or support. 

Please watch & also subscribe to my channel too. As i want to be self employed & advocate on youtube for my fellow autistics & to be off the dwp system. 

Love you
