Hello,
I have booked for a referal for an adult autism assessment on the 25th of January this year.
If I do get the referal, I would like to prepare myself.
What happens during an adult autism assessment?
In regards to things I will be asked to do, or things that I will be asked to tell them.
Thank-you,
Jayde.
Everyone on here seems to have a different experience. For some it was a single Zoom call, for others much more.
I had:
Amerantin (former member) said:a two hour interview taking my life history and my experiences that made me think I might be autistic
I know im not part of this but Are those always like back and forth conversation type interviews? What about people who struggle to explain things verbally, especially with delayed processing in social situations
The forms I had to fill in would have covered all of that anyway and the other people they interviewed would have been able to tell them about such problems.
This was something that worried me a lot because my parents are gone.
In the end they let me use a cousin and a co-worker I’ve know for a long time. I think they would have let me go through without those people. They said it’s a very common problem.
