Self Discovery?

I'm in the stupidly long queue for my assessment so I might not be exactly who you're targeting for this but I'm probably about 80 hours into research right now but it was probably around the 40-hour mark and a 16-page document of evidence before I was convinced enough to approach a doctor and he agreed right away.

The research I've done since is some data collection so I still remember everything in 2 years when I get to the front of the assessment queue and learning coping mechanisms to stop my mental health from deteriorating and I'm finding using autistic coping mechanisms to be working really well. 

all that is required is a single a4 list of traits  plus relatives ( blood ) who have autism

Yeah all I did for the GP was refine my document down to a single a4 of bullet points, the big document was for me primarily then for when I finally get assessed. I should have said that.

ah, i see, ok, that was good
