How do i get diagnosed?

Hello,

I am an adult woman and have suffered on and off with anxiety and depression. With the feeling of not fitting in and other little idiosyncrasies and reading and researching, I wonder if I may have ASD. How do I go about getting a diagnosis? I can't afford to go private. I live in Devon near Exeter. Any book recommendations for adult women with ASD would be really helpful too.

Thank you.
