Well

I got an email today to say that my screening questionnaires had been reviewed, and I am now officially on the waiting list for an autism assessment.

The waiting time is about 18 months, so it's not going to happen any time terribly soon, but maybe by the time I'm 50 I will actually know if I'm autistic or just a bit crap at life.

I got all hopeful when you said self-referral, but it turns out my local team will only accept referrals from "health and social care professionals". Grrr. I will just have to book an appointment with the only nice GP, appointments with whom are like hens' teeth.

However, I'm glad your local system has worked better for you!

Yes, I'm not sure I'd have got this far if I'd had to go via my GP!
