Hi,
I'm going to be contacting my GP soon about pursuing a diagnosis, but I am finding that when I start thinking about the possibility of having some form of ASD that I get anxious and I get a recurrence of a twitch that I have developed since Christmas due to the stress of issues in my personal life.
I understand that anxiety and ASD go frequently find themselves hand-in-hand, do others here since diagnosed have track records of anxiety? I used to be a very anxious child and although gradually this dissipated as I got towards my late teens it has persisted in the area of relationships, though the twitch is a new thing.
Hearing of others' experiences is a big comfort to me currently; I don't want to say that I'm pinning my hopes on a diagnosis as if it was to be negative it doesn't paint a very nice picture of my behaviour.
