Adult Autism Diagnosis

Days
over 7 years ago

Hi all,

I was referred for suspected autism and a couple of weeks later was visited by two people who specialise in autism and were happy to put me in for a diagnosis.

I have no idea what to expect though. They said it would take 3-6 weeks of being obsereved at their centre before a diagnosis can be made.

Does anyone know what I can expect and what they are going to observe me on?

Thanks.

    I remember going for a pre assessment to discuss why I felt I could be On the spectrum. Then this Wednesday I had appointment for the actual assessment with a psychiatrist. It turns out I have ASD or ASpergers (before that term was deemed too un PC). I know the assessment took about 2 hours!!!
