Hi Cazzy welcome to the forum. Thankfully it's a level playing field here, in that you don't need an assessment or be able speak to take part, which is a great relief to all! 

I hope you can enjoy joining in here and feel a part of this community!

Hi and welcome to the community! 

Hi I like reading, doing jigsaws, diamond painting, animals (have a family dog), wordsearches, card making, playing with fidgets, cuddly toys, watching YouTube and listening to music. 

Hi Cazzy, 

Welcome to the community, I am glad you have joined. I am sorry to hear about the frustrations you are having with assessment. 

We have a page dedicated to the diagnosis process that may be helpful for the frustrations with assessments you are experiencing: https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/diagnosis 

We provide a website dedicated to loneliness, that you may also find useful: https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/loneliness 

The Autism Service Directory may also be helpful in finding support for you.

I hope this helps and I am sure our community will welcome you and talk about their experiences as well.

Best wishes,

Alice Mod
