Adult experience of getting an autism assessment

NAS73915

Hi 

This is my first post on here.  I am 46 and female and am considering the possibility that I may be mildly on the autism spectrum.  I am unsure about trying to get a professional opinion as have heard of some negative experiences of the process and just wondered if others could share how they went about getting diagnosed and what the process was like?

I have done four different online tests which indicate if you may be on the spectrum and they all said I may be mildly.

Thank you very much.

  • Make a list of reasons why u think u are autistic.

    include blood relatives in your family who are autistic or adhd or called weird/different

    and a list of occasions when u have been called weird, autistic, different

    the list should be electronic ie so you can email it to anyone who wants it.
