@Garwboy No, we got sent to mental hospital.

Some of us survived it.

@CoolBlenderKitten @Garwboy I'm kind of dark joking. When I was a kid in mental hospital there were only 30 places in the whole of Scotland for kids, so it wasn't by any means every autistic kid that was sent there. Whether I was 'lucky' or not... is I think impossible to tell.

But I do honestly believe that all the mental health trouble I've had all my life is a direct result of how my autism was handled in my first year in primary school.

Goodness. I am so sorry you had to go through this.
The whole school experience can be traumatic under the best conditions but if one is in any way different, lordy lord.
May you find peace, Simon. 💕

@CoolBlenderKitten @Garwboy it's a long, long time ago. What makes me angry is that there are kids it's still happening to.
