Denied Autism Assessment, Feeling Ignored by Doctors

Trust me I’ve had plenty of struggles trying to get stupid doctors to listen to me and honestly the only way they listen is if your a bitch. I’m not typically and bitchy or mean person but when it comes to my healthcare I’ve learned I’ve had to be because doctors don’t take my concerns seriously due to my age and gender. Learning to advocate for yourself is very hard but it does help you get the results you want. Sometimes you just have to blunt and say it like it is and that’s the only way they will listen. Honestly if I were you I would keep calling them everyday or even every hour I know that sounds like a bit much but it will get them to understand you need this and they need to do their fucking jobs. They are supposed to be advocating for your care and health but they aren’t doing that so it’s time to be a bitch. I’m not kidding when I say I’ve called places every hour until they scheduled me an appointment. Sadly sometimes that’s what it takes for them to listen. I hope that helps somewhat. Just know your not alone in this.
