DSA for paranoia
Hi,
I was awarded DSA for my ASD and accessed support such as a specialist mentor (basically counselling), a laptop and printer and taxis.
I have also reapplied and been approved for paranoid ideation and generalised anxiety disorder. I was wondering whether this will entitle me to any more support and if so, what?
I'm not trying to exploit the system but it feels like you specifically have to ask for things and they don't suggest ideas (or at least my assessor).
Thank you !!

I'm not sure there is anything additional they could give you, but I might be wrong! It is helpful for your uni to know this information though so they can better support you.
You could get in touch with the assessment centre to see if there's anything additional they could provide for you, if you feel you need it.Quick Reply
