I have my asd assessment on Friday. I'm paying privately with savings that I'll need to replace next year.
I'm so scared that I've got this all wrong and I don't have it I feel as though I do, but what if I don't? What will I be then?
I've trawled through my social services record and it's littered with observations of how I didn't join in with other children and how I didn't form relationships with them. Anxiety, tantrums, disturbed, a phobia, withdrawal, but what if it was just down to my disrupted childhood? Surely it wouldn't have meant that I'd spend my entire life avoiding social situations and others. It wouldn't explain the sensory difficulties would it?
A horrible comment from a psychiatrist which described me as 'superficial and self-centred' I was only five. It seems like a harsh thing to write
What if I'm just a weird, antisocial misfit with a bad history?
