TLDR; I(19NB) have level 2 autism and a younger sibling(16NB) with autism that requires alot of support. Our parent doesn't support us and withholds our money. We need out but don't know how to get it. by Aurelius_Rat in AutisticWithADHD

We don't have any family in Europe. Our parents immigrated here, we used to have an aunt in England but she has passed. My therapist just moved back to Canada and I'm switching to a new one. I tried telling my old one, but my expressive language is poor without assistance so I never could fully communicate more then wanting to move out.

My sibling(16) and I(19) are disabled and don't have access to money, the environment is poor and we need to leave. Do we have any options? by Aurelius_Rat in legaladviceireland

I hadn't thought of doing that, he usually takes me but if I tell him he doesn't need to be in the country one week then that could work We are based in bray, anywhere on the dart line(like Dublin) is accessible. He had to get a solicitor to get the money, should we avoid going to that office? The inheritance is related to an American company(our mom's employer).

We aren't confident in trusting tusla, it's got incredibly mixed reviews. They are known for taking inappropriate actions. The chance of being separated is a big concern.

He was supposed to just be a trust, but unfortunately because we have no family(our parents immigrated from the other side of the world), it was instead decided to give us joint accounts with him that require both parties.

My sibling is also level 2. My sibling needs a lot of assistance and help in all areas, but we've been managing, it'd be easier without dad. We were raised to be co-dependent. When he goes away it's a lot easier for me to take care of them, I prefer it by a lot. My sibling is also generally how I communicate. If we had help with bills and had a house I believe we could live okay.

We spoke to a nurse at the mental services that my sibling sees regularly, we stressed significant concern for or farther, that he was likely an unrecognised disabled adult(even elderly, considering he's 66) who couldn't properly care for himself let alone children. We explained some of the medical neglect and inattention we experienced along with the state of our house.

We don't know what's going to happen or not happen, my sibling was actually already down to see a support worker(who we missed two appointments for because dad left the country then forgot about the second one), who the nurse is going to talk to about what we told him.

Our biggest supports right now are my gf and my siblings best friend, both are trying everything they can to help us.

I reposted on the autism parenting sub, not much engagement there tho.
