do I have asd

monkey

Hi there

I came on this website for support as my son recently got diagnosed with asd. As you can imagine I have done alot of research and have started noticing i have similar struggles to my son. Sometimes I can't put him 1st because of how I'm struggling (it makes me feel like such a bad mum) the main things are when he has tag or hood out or seams of clothes folded up I just can't cope and have to sort it out even if he is having a meltdown. Today I looked online at autism online tests and did 3 different ones. All of them said a strong likelyhood of autism. I am not sure what to do I don't want to look like an idiot at the doctors.

  • Multiple choice questionaires such as you have taken are the primary diagnostic tool for ASVs in adults. Therefore scoring highly on these tests indicateds strong likelyhood of ASV and you could seek a diagnosis on that basis. Can you tell us something about your childhood/adolescent social interaction as this is where ASVs have their most promenant impact on life?
