According to my mother, I couldn't talk properly until I was 3 or 4 years old. She said that I did 'talk' but she couldn't understand it. However, she also said that I went to a pre-school group at that age and the woman that ran the group COULD understand it, so that's a bit confusing. She also tol...

I feel free.. I've made it clear from when I was 3 or 4 years old that I'm not going to live a stereotypical female existence. I've never wanted children or marriage, although I am in a long term relationship. With 'freedom' comes a huge amount of emotional pain. Life has been a struggle for as long...

I know exactly how you feel. I had my assessment in November 2016 and had been obsessing about it for months. I was analysing every single aspect of the procedure and how what I wore/what mood I was in/whether I was nervous/whether I wrote a list/what my mother or partner would say/whether I looked ...

Around a year ago, I realised that I was autistic. After spending 10 days reading solidly on the subject, I finally plucked up the courage to phone an old friend and ask for her opinion. After laughing and sneering at me for a bit, she said that I couldn't be autistic because there was an autistic p...

Hi Sai and Ariels Song, Thank you for your replies. At least my GP was helpful and agreed to refer me, which was a good result. I'll see what MH say and take it from there. I'm not sure what happens next exactly, my GP didn't seem to be totally sure of the procedure either. At least if it doesn't wo...

Hmm! I've just got back from the appointment with my GP to try and get a referral. My GP was very sympathetic and seemed genuinely interested in what I had to say, which is good. I was hoping to be referred to the Sheffield Adult Autism and Neurodevelopmental Service, but I was told that they couldn...

Hi ArielsSong, Thank you for posting about your search for diagnosis in the UK. I am going through the same thing at the moment, having my initial GP appointment in 2 days time. I can't pretend that I'm not nervous about it. About a year ago, a friend with Aspergers told my partner that he believed ...
