Many thanks Malik. I am going through numerous assessments with the NHS team here in Belfast. Most of it is reassuring, but of course there are some lingering concerns.

I'm not Deaf or Hard of Hearing. But as an autistic person, I feel like using BSL is less stressful than speaking. I have difficulty processing verbal information due to my autism. If I am not looking at a human's face, it is more difficult to understand what noises they are making.
