City Vs Country living

Jay

Hi all

I’m not diagnosed and am asking for assessment at the moment having had a few family members suggest it and scoring highly on all the AQs etc. 

My question is whether anyone has a preference for city or countryside. I actually like to visit both the busy city and peaceful countryside although I kind of live in the suburbs. I love to spend a day in the London museums and hiking through a national park. 

I feel like enjoying the hustle and bustle of London doesn’t sound very autistic but I know people vary a lot so I’d be interested to hear anyone’s thoughts. 

In general, I’m moving from ‘I need to get an assessment, this could explain my life’s struggles’ to ‘I’m a complete fraud, what am I even thinking’ at the moment.

Thanks for any comments.

  • I prefer a medium sized town. Smaller towns have less amenities although people are probably more friendly. I like where I currently live as it is on the edge of the town so I can walk in green areas and tree lined paths. Behind our garden is a school field so we are not overlooked and we get plenty of birdlife.

    Before I had a child I enjoyed holidays in the country. One particular one had a field of sheep behind the place we stayed. As for cities I have no longing to revisit them. London in particular is too busy and built up.
