ADOS assesment (Adult)

Goatworshiper

What should I expect with an ADOS assesment?

I have one soon, and I understand it is to test how I interact with situation but I don't know what to expect.

  • The other thread has drifted off topic so I'm going to put some other stuff on here.

    At any point during the diagnostic process will I get the chance to expess how (I think) I think differently to others, as this is what isolates me. I tend to think objectively but sometimes radically too.

    When I had a cognitive assesment I was asked if I was ever depressed and I said no, but I came away feeling I should of mention that I feel very isolated. But I prefer to be isolated than be around others because others make me feel uncomfortable. Argggggggh. Strange paradoxial world i find myself living in.

    I don;t ever think about ending my life, but I do feel sad when I have to go to work or interact with people. I feel like I need the toilet a lot and want to sit infront of a fire when this happens in winter.

    (maybe should have put this in the "not knowing how I feel thread"?)
