I got some really good news today that my assessment has been booked for next month and whilst I'm really excited to potentially get some of the answers that I've been looking for, I'm doing my usual thing of worrying about all the things that could go wrong - what if I forget to mention important things, what if the person/people doing the assessment don't spot some of the things they should....worst of all what if they say that I'm not autistic?? An autism diagnosis seems like it fits all of the issues I have and I'm hoping that is the diagnosis I get because if it's not then I'm not a regular autistic person I'm a really weird neuro typical so f*** knows where I start with figuring out all my issues.
Any advice on how to tell my overactive worry brain to shut the F up for the next few weeks?
