Autism assessment

I posted not so long ago about my assessment. Could have been missed because I was banned for posting a link about squids Face palm‍♂️ 

anyway, I find out next week but my mum just basically said I was a normal kid. Despite not being and really struggling. I’m hoping the assessor seen through that but....I’ve been so angry. My other siblings didn’t struggle but I just got left behind without any help. I’m not sure if it was guilt on her part. It’s been a bad week but I spoke to my other brother who seen that I did struggle with things. The same things I struggle with now.

anyone else experienced this?

  • I was diagnosed as autistic last year at the age of 57. When my Mum filled in the form about my childhood she didn't indicate anything unusual, although I did manage to discover some behaviours which were a bit different when talking to her before my assessment. I think when they meet you for the assessment they can do it without the childhood history, as not everyone has someone to provide this.
