To my great surprise, I received a letter today informing me that: "...I would agreee that you do present with an Autistic Spectrum Disorder and I can coinfirm that as a diagnosis."
The assessment process was very stressful and I felt as if I was on trial for falsely claiming to have Asperger's traits. But apparently I needn't have worried.
Maybe they make the experience deliberately stressful to observe one's reactions? If so, it seems a bit harsh. I had been feeling very depressed, as I felt certain that I'd get a negative. Now, I'm feeling very relieved!
