Waiting for formal diagnosis

Hi.  I've recently had a mental health assessment and scored high on the autism test.  I've been referred to the local autism team and am waiting for an appointment for a formal diagnosis - aware this could be a long time off.  I have been searching online for advice about what to do pending the assesssment and there doesn't seem to be much advice.

I've done a bit of readingas I didn't know much about autism and late diagnosis- from what I have read, I tick a lot of 'boxes' and it would explain a lot about my life. Feel like I'm in limbo and not sure what to do pending the appointment.  Anyonehave any advice?

Thanks

Sam
