Coming to terms with realising you are probably autistic

Ultramarine

Hi,

Sorry I've been posting on here such a lot recently.  I was just wondering if anyone can relate to this.

Did you find it hard to come to terms with, when you first realised you might be autistic?  I haven't yet been diagnosed, but I'm becoming more and more sure that I am autistic, the more I find out about autism and recognise the signs in myself.

I'm finding that it's very hard for me to concentrate on work at the moment, and I'm just feeling upset, tense and unsettled.  Also really anxious.

I don't know if this is normal or if anyone else experienced this when you were at a similar stage?

I don't know if I should try to fight it and carry on as normal, or give myself a bit of slack and try to rest a bit more when I can.

    I'm sure they wouldve left a voice mail and or rang you again if it was about an important assessment.

    shouldnt be long although its been like 5 weeks now so their 3 week estimate has died off lol

    could be perhaps that i maybe had a call from whoever they refered me to and i perhaps misheard them and hung up.... i do remember a week or 2 ago a random phone call that i sure they said they was from carphone warehouse... so i hung up because *** sales calls... could be i misheard and it wasnt carphone warehouse but maybe if the assessment company has a name that sounds like that over a mumbled phone line lol see, this *** is why i hate phone calls...phones need to be banned and deleted from human memory.
