ADOS assesment (Adult)

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.

  • Thank's for the advice guys. The fear I feel is probably worse than the reality, but I suppose that's the way governments want it.

    My GF keeps on telling me I should attempt to claim DLA/PIP as elligibility does not matter if you work. I feel pretty inadequite (sp sorry) about not being able to hold a full time job down both in terms of self worth and financially, but I know that a full time job will lead to more struggles. I've worked full time before and it just didnt work, couldnt cope being around people and noise for 37hrs a week. I'm living on £700 a month but I spent over £160 on fuel (but i have car tax, insurance etc to pay too) and obviously living costs. I live in a town with massive unemployment and poor transport so I need a car to get out of town for both work and to relax, so getting rid of the car is counter productive. When I look at the criteria for DLA/PIP I don't seem to fit it, such as I don't need some one with me etc. 

    I actually love my tasks in my job, although I don't like that there is no progression and the contact with people.
