Last November 2014, I was diagnosed with ADHD. The specialist who did the diagnosis decided to refer me for an autism assessment. The autism assessment will be Tues 8 Dec 2015 here in London, UK.
The assessment will last 2-3 hours and there will be some questions about my background and an 'autism diagnosis observation schedule'.
All of my assessments and diagnoses have been on the NHS (National Health Service). This is the UK's social healthcare system. The NHS is free at the point of use, available to everybody and funded from general taxation. I have pleased with service which the NHS have provided to me so far.
I am a bit anxious about the ASD assessment. What will the questions be like ? Will I give the 'wrong' answers ? I also what to use it as an opportunity to discuss the things which make me anxious and things which I enjoy doing.
