Assessment

Hergé

Well it's official, I've just had my results emailed through and unsurprisingly I'm autistic. The slightly more interesting thing is that I score highly on the ADHD tests too. Maybe that's for another time.

So Merry Christmas to all my fellow happy wanderers.

    If they don't do anything proactively, then I suggest asking them for your personalised care plan, per NICE guidelines.

    I don't know, I read through the unabridged report which was uncomfortable seeing everything laid out.

    The report will be sent to my GP but I doubt they'd do much. I've asked them to process an ADHD referral as it's suggested in the report.

    We have an organisation here called MAIN which the local M/H team have suggested for further support.

    It's an odd feeling to finally have confirmation and an explanation of why I have challenges in certain areas.

  • Congratulations on getting your diagnosis! 

  • Congratulations and merry Christmas!

  • Congratulations!

    Is anyone going to talk you through the results?

  • Congratulations! :)

    And Merry Christmas to you, too! Christmas tree
