I really need an assessment

NAS80311

Hello, my mum introduced me to this site because I am waiting for an autism assessment at the moment. At the moment it seems really likely I do have autism, as I have displayed characteristics most my life.

The problem is, the NHS is really taking it's time. It has almost been a year and I only just got a letter, basically acknowledging the existence of me.

What do I do? Should I stay on this site? I have never been even decent at making friends, so maybe likeminded people will be better?

In the meantime, what are your favourite games?

  • I am also getting very frustrated whilst waiting for Lancashire Autism Services to get in touch with news about assessment. 

    I was referred to them in Feb, I have tried calling them dozens of times, even got my GP to try and contact them but with no luck. 

    All I want to know is IF I am on their waiting list and how long it is likely to be but I cannot even get through to them. VERY frustrating. 

    I guess then only thing we can do is wait.
