Diagnosis

Hi, I'm new here, and looking to gain insight into whether I am autistic or not.

A friend has recently been diagnosed and is convinced that I also fit the picture and so I asked my GP for a referral for diagnosis. The GP said he would look into it and then wrote to me asking me to give good reason for a referral.

This has completely stumped me. I'm not sure I can say clearly why I think I may be, except for my high online score.

I wonder if anyone here would be happy to talk about their experiences with diagnosis, or anything else which may help with my letter which fills me with anxiety..... and so, just doesn't get done.
