Well after several months and multiple doctors and consultants I am finally a week away from getting my diagnosis. Its actually quite a wierd feeling right now, part of me happy it will soon be over but part of me also worries that they might say I am not autistic. Considering how many consultants I have seen, I very much doubt that is the case because they pretty much all said I am clearly have ASD. Does anyone know of any coping methods I can do to lower my anxiety this week or do I just have to ride it out?!
Not sure about the bacon being a universal panacea? - reminded me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Sprat it's a matter of taste, YMMV etc
I find that listening to podcasts such as Thinking Allowed can distract me and take my mind off things that are bothering me. You don't have to agree with what they say on these things (I often find myself arguing with LT in my mind) but they do introduce new ideas to think about.
(Other podcasts are available!)
