Feeling low after assessment.

NAS3121

I had my assessment yesterday which took place over about 3 hours. I was asked lots of questions by 2 psychologists and another psychologist spoke to my parents, I also had an ADOS assessment. I have been really anxious about going, so I expected to feel much better once it was over. I don't know the outcome yet, I should find out in the next 2 weeks. Although the psychologists were really nice, i found discussing all the things I struggle with has left me feeling quite low and not too good about myself in general and I was wondering if other people have felt the same after the assessment?

    I certainly did for a while.  Then about six-months later the assessment centre I went to ran a post-diagnosis course for people with Aspergers.  I found the course both useful, if nothing else for having confirmation I wasn't alone, but also difficult emotionally as well.
