Doubt

My second appointment is looming and I’m full of doubt. I am talking myself out of the possibility of being Autistic. I don’t want to post here anymore, and I have been trying to find other causes for my issues. I’m still going over the first testing session repeatedly. I’m so angry that I forgot basic things that we should all know. I don’t feel I performed very well. And I’m not happy that I think I was being observed at the time. I only realised this after attending.


Today, I delved further into understanding Dyspraxia, that my daughter has. Reading through the huge list of symptoms (that I didn’t know existed), I find many that apply to me. Perhaps it’s just that that I have. I feel like I’m wasting my money on this assessment. Weary

  • Don’t worry,. I recently went through the same phase,. I got my diagnosis without childhood input and convinced I was adhd ocd bipolar.. turns out I am all this and it’s ASD. Worry and doubt is a trait so I get told on a daily basis. If it’s not ASD they’ll point the mental health in the right direction as there opinions will count.

    you wasted money? Mine was free? :-/
