Adult diagnosis in lincolnshire ? where?

Larocoz

Hi im 19 and i think i have aspergers syndrome, i have all the symptoms and i have been to my GP a few times for a diagnosis, my GP says i have aspergers too but she can not find anyone that can provide a formal diagnosis. so iv decided to try and find someone privately.

I live in North Lincolnshire, Does anybody know anyone that mght be able to help me ? I am going to university in september and i want to ensure i get the help i need to make it easier for me to cope away from home.

any feedback would be great, or anyone else experiencing it hard to find someone to give a diagnosis ?

thanks

  • Hi Larcoz,

    Sorry to hear you've had these problems trying to get a diagnosis. On the website we have a directory of local services. You can see all the results for Lincolnshire and see what is available.

    The results for diagnosis didn't seem too helpful for you as an adult I'm afraid but you might want to contact the advocacy groups in the area. They may have a lot of experience supporting people to find a diagnosis

    You can perform a search here:

    http://www.autism.org.uk/directory

    You might also find it helpful to look out our section on the website about diagnosis this information may help steer you towards people who can help.

    Hopefully other people in the Community can help as well and maybe discuss how they were diagnosed.
