Hi there,
i have an initial assessment appointment in the next week and am starting to get beyond stressed about it, i don’t know how it will work or if the person will be nice and approachable.
I have been doing lot’s of research into autism symptoms because i want to be prepared with a list of signs that i have is that i can present a strong case for myself because i feel like I’m having to prove why i need a diagnosis.
My parents have always said thought i was autistic and now its all i can see in myself. I have issues specifically around lack of routine, yesterday i was very busy studying as i am a university student so i was on campus learning. Today i have been irritated, agitated and to be honest I feel like i am going to have a breakdown.
Not knowing if i am autistic is adding to all other stressors i have in life which is already a lot and i just cant function, i can either keep on top of my studies or keep on top of my house never both.
i just feel really overwhelmed right now, is this normal during this process?
