My son struggled through primary school until an excellent teacher recognised his difficulties and suggested assessment through the pathway. The conclusion was that he did not meet the threshold for diagnosis. Fast forward almost ten years, and all the traits are still there and now what appears to be autistic burnout has resulted in him losing his job and struggling with all aspects of every day life. Could he have been misdiagnosed? Could be re assessed or is a no always a no? Could he have been excellent at making? He passed his GCSEs and A Levels after a huge social struggle but is now just stuck. Any one have a similar experience?
