I finally got diagnosed. - sh.itjust.works

“The results of this evaluation are indicative of autism spectrum disorder.” Never before have I been so relieved and yet so dismayed to read such a sentence.

Congrats. I am a week away from mine. I’m not hopful since I can’t seem to find any if the written records they wanted. I was told to bring a bunch of odd items such as strings coins and dice. I also have to go 2 hours to my home town just so I can help my mother access the online meeting. I half suspect they’ll just tell me it’s inconclusive because I can’t find my elementary transcripts from over 25 years ago.
I know a formal diagnosis can help, but don't forget self diagnosis is valid. It sounds like you're working with someone with outdated knowledge of autism.
