Hey guys. Quick question - ASD IC assessment?

Hey guys. I’ve tried to Google this but I’m getting conflicting answers. I’ve also emailed the professionals who will be doing my ASD assessment but no reply as of yet and I’m just getting more and more stressed. I’ve been booked in for an ASD IC assessment. Does anyone know, definitively, what the IC is in context to an ASD IC assessment?

  • I don’t know what IC is but I’m wondering if it is ICD (international Classification of Diseases) which comprises criteria for an autism assessment. This website has information about criteria used in diagnosis. It’s under ‘Advice and guidance’. Most assessors are very understanding of some of the feelings people have as they approach assessment. My assessors were very kind, non judgemental, and made me feel that my difficulties were just part of the normal, everyday, rich tapestry of human behaviour.
