Been told no diagnosis without an informant

Hi,

I posted before about getting an autism assessment as an older adult. I have had the initial consultation, but I am now stuck. They basically advised that, without an informant, it is very unlikely I will get any diagnosis, so they advise only proceeding with an informant. I have no relatives to act as informant, and as I have moved regularly, I also don't have a friendship where I've lived with someone or overlapped with them enough that they'd be capable of doing this. I actually don't know how to proceed, other than not to proceed. Any advice?

I also can't provide any informant. I have old photos related to my interests in my childhood, including a photo of an old tram model that I made myself. I also have school certificates and I recall well, what I've been told by my family members about myself, my untypical development etc. I don't know if it would be enough evidence for my case. Maybe you can look at clinics, where it's not required, maybe you could also collect similar evidence of how you were as a child.

Yeah I wish I had that stuff but I don’t. I have about 10 photos from childhood and nothing else.
