To undiagnosed adults or those diagnosed in adulthood: How did you realize you might be autistic?

Why did you begin to research/consider autism in the first place? What made you want to get tested?

  • My son was diagnosed with ADHD and while going through this I learnt more about Autism and ADHD and many of the points struck a cord with me and made me look more into it.  It answered so many questions about my past and current life.  I’m currently starting my referral process after posting on here to ask whether it was worth doing.  Am pleased I’ve decided to go ahead.
