Anxiety about sending off referral forms

A bit of background...

Around Christmas 2022 I requested asc self referral forms. In Feb this year I filled most of them in. In April my oldest received an asc diagnosis. Last month I saw a psychiatrist about my anxiety and my suspicions that I might be sutistic came up. He said I had some autistic traits.

Today I finally completed the asc self referral forms and made a copy of the psychiatrist's report to include. Now I am experiencing a lot of anxiety about the prospect of sending it all off.

It seems likely that the forms will now sit around at home gor a few more months...

  • If you didn't think it was important for you, you wouldn't have come this far.

    Maybe think about it this way: if you send them off and you get near to the front of the waiting list and change your mind, you can back out then; if you don't send it out, there's no option to change your mind and rewind time, so you're stuck with that extra wait.

  • That is a really good way of looking at it. Thank you.
