This Is Me

I have suffered with mental health problems for a very long time, but only got diagnosed 2016 with 3 disorders. I am now gonna be under going tests to see if I suffer from a form of autism

Hello Hero

Good luck with your tranche of tests, try not to worry, the tests generally not invasive, a scan may be taken and various tests to check your memory, just like taking exams without the certificate

I wish you luck for the tests .. You will soon get it confirmed if you are or not and then you will be able to change your coping stradegies accordingly .. Please keep us updated

Thanks both of you, it's very hard right now as I couldn't spell things @ work last Sun, can't make simple decisions, rigid with my routines, unsocial, accept what people say as that's that, struggle with spelling certain words, can't say certain words

I will let you know, but booking them is proving to be a nightmare!

[Satsuma in reply to Hidden]

I understand .. And also I hear what you say .. Just be you and that will do for us here

[Satsuma in reply to Satsuma]

If it is any consolation I struggle with much of what you experience

[Hidden in reply to Satsuma]

Thanks Satsuma, I have always tried to be someone else as Mum has not wanted me to seek help for all my problems earlier in life & it has led to the problems I suffer with now & the bug mental crash I had in 2016 which resulted in 5 wks on a mental health ward

Had the appointment on Wed & been referred to the autism team, there's a waiting list though
