    I have been made aware of the different levels @Nightcity .

    Mine is Level 1

    Ive looked up little bits about Level 1 but not too deeply yet

    Your one of the nicest people on this forum @Nightcity and its heartbreaking to know you have so many things to deal with .

    We are who we are

    I know for sure though with or without the things u have to deal with

    You are a person with a big heart .

    Until today I hadnt been sure of much about Autism even though i have asked questions about it .

    It must be a big worry for you in regards your mum

    I would hope to think things will be put in place so you can transition smoothly

    Hope until that time comes you have many good times together the best you can

    It is heartbreaking to hear of your intense issues but u are you and thats ok

    Thanks for your past and present support

    Forever grateful

    Many many thanks always

    Thank you so much @WhatThe , always grateful to u on so many levels

    You have always made me feel welcome here and always been non judgemental .

    You are one of those special kind of people who always thinks of others

    A very special gift you have

    Ive been told Im ASD1

    Apparently the info is going to be given to my gp so it will definately be on my medical records

    It would have been so much better @WhatThe , if you had found the forum back then

    It would have been so much beneficial to you .

    Part of me thinks with me only being Asd 1 that its not enough or maybe ive done wrong by asking for an assessment

    I dunno

    This might be me just coming to terms with it

    Always grateful to you @WhatThe

    Thank you always

    You are autistic, that's enough for a late-diagnosed woman!

    Never mind the level.

    One day people will be assessed for both conditions at the same time - that will reduce waiting times won't it?

    My GP agreed immediately to an ADHD referral for me but I only cottoned on to the possibility that I also had this because of Albus. I thought it was about boys unable to sit still but there are different types.

    Drink plenty of water tonight. Well done Strawberry, you did it!

    Yes being Assessed for both at the same time would be a brilliant idea @WhatThe

    Well Im glad your gp agreed to the adhd assessment

    Glad you found it helpful with the help from Albus

    I know i asked Albus a few questions myself

    Well i wasnt sure what was going to be asked

    I answered the questions the best i could .

    I have said many times strength in numbers

    I think its true

    Thanks for your support

    Forever grateful

    Take care

    Best wishes always

    Exactly, we don't know what we'll be asked. I remember your autism/depression thread and learned so much from it. We don't discuss it much on the forum these days.

    I must have got side tracked @WhatThe

    Id forgotten about that

    I know im still gonna clash with certain people within my family unit

    Not told them all yet

    But all the questions asked i answered and at the end of it he said yes you have ASD 1

    Yeah, it'll be hard to think about anything else for some time, Strawberry. Be prepared for them not to understand or change their behaviour. Your new diagnosis may only be important to you and that's a hard pill to swallow.

    Hello @Mary_Scope

    How are you this afternoon

    I seem to be ok at the moment I think

    Possibly still sinking in

    Hope the rest of your day is peaceful

    Best wishes always
