Hi
I finally found the courage to book an appointment with my GP and (hopefully) begin the diagnostic process. The appointment is soon and it’s safe to say that I am feeling really anxious about the whole thing. I’m not sure what to say or how to structure what to say or how to communicate it to them as clearly as possible. I also have this imposter feeling that I’m not going to be believed and it gets to the point where I start to not believe it myself and start to feel silly.
Does anyone have any advice for what kind of thing to say or just any advice at all?
I know that before people have advised I have a list prepared of why I think I may be on the spectrum but I’m not sure how things usually go in a 10minute appointment and if there is much time. Could it be a few key reasons rather than the whole list of my characteristics? Would that be enough?
The appointment is over the telephone so although I don’t usually like to use the phone I think I prefer it because I can be at home when it happens.
Thank you.
