I'm getting more stressed about my assessment. I think it's the not knowing what will happen, where will it be, who will be there. I get really stressed when it's something new and I have no way of doing any research. Can you tell me what will it be like, how many people will be there, what sort of questions get asked, how long does it last for. Sorry I'm just trying to get a picture in my mind of what could happen on the day
Does a psychiatrist assess you for autism or is it someone else?
It wasn't for me (NHS), but I know at least some of the people who got assessed privately were seen by psychiatrists.
