Hi, I was diagnosed with aspergers as an adult ten years ago.
Long story short, married to a narcissist for twenty years who convinced me to be assessed, I went along with it thinking it would make life easier and she would change, only to be unceremoniously divorced.
I am very successful, I run a growing company, I manage complicated and convoluted bookings, dates and appointments, meet and deal with hundreds and thousands of people a year, executives, producers and such, I write professionally, I perform professionally on stage and more. I am functional at home,think about my family's needs, make sure my kids have what they need, make sure my friends are okay, care about others, interested in them and their feelings.
I don't think these are autistic traits.
Is there anyone here who can point me in the direction of someone who can reassess me?
I think you will find that autistic people care about others and are interested in them and their feelings!
I f this continues to trouble you, I would just ask your GP if you can be reassessed - I don't think people will take kindly to this post as it could possibly be trolling in disguise - you might want to edit it.
