Recently received both an ADHD and now an Autism diagnosis.
I went into the assessment process not really sure what I wanted to gain but have suspected the above for a while.
The assessment was very eye opening- it helped me to identify how I am two very different people at work and at home.
I don't know why but the Autism assessment seemed to hit me harder than I expected! Like a weight has been lifted and I actually have a valid reason for the overwhelm I feel frequently.
Also has anyone else noticed how we definitely have some sort of internal radar and seem to click with some people very quickly who are clearly on the spectrum also!
