Intro

Hi. In the past nine months my outlook on life has changed, my friend from the gym got a diagnosis of asd and we are quite similar in a lot of ways, this led to me doing various online test including an AQ test and scored 41 during lockdown I have been doing two autism related courses. I keep ending up in tears while reading the course materials as it reflects me so much. In November I got signed of work with stress for two weeks but I suspect it was burnout there was a lot of changes happened that I could not cope with and I ended up collapsing at work after pushing myself to far and got sent home.  So I am exploring autism and what it means with the possibility of hopefully getting a referral for a diagnosis from the doctor after lockdown is over with.
