kingbill

hi i am a 35 year old man trying to get a diagnosis for aspergers . I have been to see two gps who both just fob me off the first one told me you cannot get a diagnosis as a adult .The second one just told me to get in touch with mind i have been on their website and it dosent mention aspergers. the gp put me on medication for anxiety and depression which made me rock ,twitch open my mouth as wide as it goes . I dont know what else i can do to get a diagnosis . Is there anyone who has successfully got a diagnosis as an adult if so how?

  • I'm struggling to get a diagnoses for Aspergers. I've been diagnosed with OCD since I was a child. My brothers are diagnosed with autism as is so far my oldest son.

    Luckily my GP referred me straight away, my problem is that I have no way of getting to the assessment centre that I've been referred to and I can't find a way round this current problem.

     

    Good luck and all the best.
