Hello people,
I'm feeling very lost at the moment and would really appreciate some advice or stories.
I've just had a letter saying that I don't meet the criteria for a diagnosis of autism.
After years of research on autism in adult women and reading and listening their experiences, I finally thought I had an answer as to why I feel and think the way I do as I experience the same things.
I iust don't know where I go from here.
This sounds like awfully hard to me. Did you just do the initial testing or the full test?
Did they speak to someone to find and out any information? If they did this sometimes inaccurate information can be given out. For example, I was never tested but they just spoke to my mum at first who said I was never unwell in my childhood etc etc loads more inaccurate. The hospital knew I was autistic. Then, case closed due to a parent misleading info perfect no ill health. Right, hospital continued treating as an autitistic everyone knew....left applied again as told too autistic too vulnerable etc. Got to screening this time left my mum out went to get my medical records and I was shocked and in it I saw at just two months I was in hospital sick with an infection and got anti biotic and was unwell through to two years old back and forewards and never ahead because of the wrong information. I then sailed through the rest and got through to testing and was diagnosed many level 2 moderate. I attached an image to show it is all true and how can my parent forget that. They spoke to my dad as well who verfied things, but no mum who cannot stand any disabilities.
You can always go private as well if you save.
If it is not to be though I say try and forget and walk away from autism if you are not. There are disadvantages to it as well. Just be yourself. Also, there is just sensory processing disorder.
