hi anthony,
since you said you are happy to chat, let's use this space to chat.
so you are on the waiting list of diagnois? so tell me what are you working as now or are you still a student?
If it’s easier you can send me a private message rather than having a separate thread - my account is set to accept messages from all members :)That way if won’t irritate other members of the forum.
At the moment I guess I’m neither strictly - I’m not working nor a student. I’m planning to go off to university at some stage but due to the autistic traits and anxiety plans are on hold for now. This said I am working on some history projects - so I’m sort of studying I guess - just doing it my way!
As for the autism situation, I’ve moved areas so again lost my place in the referral queue but I’m working with an autism specialist at the moment and she’s going to get it sorted :) so finally I’m going to get the diagnosis. Bare in mind she’s a specialist she has said (and this is pretty much a direct quote) “it will almost certainly come back as Aspergers” - all the screening tools she has used put me firmly in that area - the diagnosis it seems is just a formality.
How about you? You said you were going through a dark patch... how have you been feeling the last few days? Any better?
