Reasonable adjustments

In terms of reasonable adjustments where you have a workplace assessment I wanted to ask if parts of your role/duties or the way you do them are up for discussion as well as the environment etc? I don't want or expect to not do parts of my job but I honestly can't even identify what parts I find hard and what I find overwhelming and pushes me to the edge. I'd like to explore my job role and all the things I do with someone who understands my neurodiverse type and try to think of ways together to enable me to stay in my job.
I don't particularly want or need more tech, headphones or a sign over my head saying "neurodiverse don't approach"
And how does it work if you don't have an office base?

For me it was kind of my management making decisions for me after seeing the impact of certain parts of the job role changing under business cases so my current reasonable adjustments are

i have my own office locally I go to every day whereas my team all work from home
i do no take calls or have to speak to the public
I have a particular work stream that is slightly different to the rest of the team
I work longer days and have a day off in the week
I have a particular set up at work and no one else uses my desk/office as hot desking is immensely stressful for me

in return they get high productivity most days from me pending the IT systems working correctly
