Out of all the people who responded to the CAMHS survey, this is what was said when asked if they agreed that "CAMHS understands Autistic experiences"
Only 17.6% agreed that CAMHS understands
58.2% expressed disagreement.
The rest had a neutral opinion, which in my opinion is still not acceptable f9r a service working with such vulnerable people.

If you haven't read my book "CAMHS in Crisis" yet, it's available now!
This book looks at the failure of CAMHS to support Autistic young people. It uses parliamentary evidence, research, and personal experiences.

Really niche fist-wave at an unforgiving sky, but fuck me I get so angry every time I have to update my daughter’s EHC plan. These are meant to be legal documents and they’re written with zero care and attention.
Forcing a person back to the source of their trauma with no meaningful support or accommodations is placing lives in danger. The new government push to get kids back into school is a danger to disabled communities.
The problem is isn't that the kids are not in school, it's that school is not a safe environment for all kids.
