Seeking Autism Diagnosis as an AFAB Non-Binary Person in the UK

I am also an AFAB nonbinary person who was diagnosed last year. If you have any questions feel free to message me :)

Yep! But I'm probably level 2, just heavily masked. I'm AFAB non binary, so my traits were missed growing up, even though they were really obvious and they idea of autism had been raised when I was 8 and a few times since. I've been on the childrens waiting list for two years but as I'm now 18, I've been moved to tha dults list which I'm told could be years.

Not in the UK but I am an AFAB non-binary person, and I assume this info could still work. The more detail you give about your symptoms the better so I recommend writing it down and asking if you could send them the document. My evaluator found it really helpful. Include current and past symptoms. It can be a bit overwhelming but the questions they asked me didn't cover all areas so I think it could pay off

i’m in the uk, and currently going through the process. i’m AFAB and currently questioning my gender. feel free to message me x

Eh in UK I am in I heared and seen ppl that "had" autism, but really didn't. Not only that I was in those special schools and they just care about money and hate mental illness like depression. Take it from my experience.. Uk staff and ppl I met they just act all nice but stab u in the back! Be very careful and good luck dear. Btw some say in there that just some have autism and other staff that it's lvl of autism. Take care! 💖

Not in the same boat, but definitely make sure to research and bring examples of how the symptoms fit into your life. I was lucky to be diagnosed early but this tends to help for anyone trying to get a diagnosis later
