I finally got an appointment for an assessment. I chose my sister to help me since my parents didn't want me to get assessed or diagnosed in childhood and still don't want me to get diagnosed.
We've filled out the questionnaires and they gave my sister an interview date for the childhood history part for next week Monday which is really soon. But she doesn't want to do this date and said she can't do it until next month.
That's making me anxious because it took a whole year to get this appointment, I don't know if they'd be able to give her a date for next Month.
Plus if she doesn't do the history phone call until next month then my ADOS assesment would be pushed even further back (two weeks after the childhood history part) . Plus it would be near my birthday when my mother would be around and it would be hard to do the assessment secretly since she doesn't respect my boundaries and checks on me every few minutes.
I think I'll have to do the childhood history bit by myself. Unfortunately I don't have anyone else to ask. I'm a bit nervous but I'll be okay. Does it affect my results if I do it myself? Any advice about what information on my childhood I should gather information about?
