Struggling with Being Undiagnosed Autistic

Ive had my assessment and now I’m waiting to be treated which will be after i leave school. My school knows but still dont give me the help i need. And my family says ‘your not diagnosed you can’t just say you can’t do it because [insert a symptom] which sucks im not using it as an excuse but it’s what the doctor said they suspected i have. It’s annoying i get.

I'm so sorry you're dealing with that. I can totally relate to what you're saying. I just turned 48 and even though I don't have a formal diagnosis from a Dr I've done my research as well and I'm finally trying to get the answers I deserve from a psychiatrist I'm seeing. I've always felt different from others my entire life but back then there was no name for it therefore my parents didn't do anything about it. I also have a 17 year old son who's autistic as well but he was diagnosed young. My advice is don't stop searching for answers and that diagnosis 💕

i have had a very similar experience, if you ever need to talk or want some advice on things school can put into place without a diagnosis let me know! 💕
