Unfortunately, your GP's reaction is only too common. Often it's simply because in your area there is very little that they can offer. Even therapy is often limited to a few sessions and even more often, with someone not trained to deal with an autistic.
It's probably why so many of us find places like this so helpful, or try to seek out autistic groups irl. Because all too often the only and the best way to learn and find out things to help, is from each other.
