Missing diagnosis info...

QiraSoo

Im 36 and have just received my ASD diagnostics documents, indicating I am autistic (level 1).

There are a few things I felt were incorrect, because at the time I guess I didn't think about them. 

It states that I'm "happy and comfortable about going on Holiday" when in actual fact, I really am not. I only "go away" because my dad lives in Spain. Which is lovely, but the airport process for me is horrific.

The diagnostics still indicated I had autism, but just missed out this bit of information which may have affected my score. I'm not sure what I'm worried about. But I guess I just want some comfort from you all whom have completed the assessments but felt like they missed things out or didn't get all of the info you wanted to give. 

Overall it indicated I am good at communication, but reciprocating is a struggle..

I just feel like I let myself down in masking some issues I might have (they did indicate a high masking score). 

Sorry if this is confusing. I'm trying to understand it myself...probably why I am autistic haha.

  • They got a couple of things mixed up on my diagnosis too, but overall I don't think it's affected me, or any (lack) of help I've recieved. I think it's a bit like getting a degree or A levels, no one ever asks to see the report apart from the benefits people. Maybe they didn't include your problems with airports as they think everyone hates airports?
