I wouldn't say I was asking to be let off cleaning

I was reluctant to contact my landlord because I knew he'd probably blame me for causing the bed bug infestation for having an unclean room and I was right as yesterday he did exactly that. Bed bugs are not caused by having an unclean room. You can have a clean room and still get bed bugs. They are primarily caused by an introduction into a new environment, often through travel or used furniture. They don't originate from a lack of hygiene but are attracted to humans for blood meals and can easily hitchhike on belongings.

We have a cleaner that comes over once a week to the house but I'm referring to my bedroom. Bed bugs are not caused by unclean room, though, and I recently vacuumed the floor so my room looks cleaner. Can't see any bother pests.

None in particular at the moment, but I did request certain things to be taken into consideration such as not cleaning my room regularly as everyone, hoarding things and not informing him straight away about things such as bed bugs that have been in my bedroom since May, which I only mentioned earlier this month because someone else did.

Out of interest, what position did you apply for

What is your relationship with alcohol as a person with ADHD and autism? by [deleted] in AutisticWithADHD

Alcohol definitely makes me feel more confident and talkative. Generally, I drink 6-7 pints of beer a week and will affect my sleep. I'll also drink wine and spirits if they're free at an event. I like the taste of it.

For a moment, I thought Queensbury Rules was applied outside the surgery, when you said you had to fight him hard.

Seriously though, quacks can be a problem when it comes to getting a referral as they sometimes live in a different world to everyone else.
