Hi all,
I'm Joe and i'm 29 years old.
After becoming more familiar with what autism is, I suspect I may be autistic myself. It is something I have thought about for the last 5 or 6 years.
After finding myself in some tough social interactions recently and getting quite upset over it I decided to go down the route to see if I am autistic.
I booked an appointment with the doctors and I wrote a list of all my unusual behaviours, I also had my mother add to this list.
I spoke to the doctor and after getting through about 1/3rd of the list he stopped me and said he has more than enough information to refer me.
I got a call from the doctors this morning to say that my referral has been rejected and they are unable to give me a reason as to why.
What should I do now?
I would perhaps feel a bit better about this had the doctor let me go through my full list rather than cutting me off early.
