    Just a thought: If anyone’s thinking of getting an autism evaluation or has one scheduled, as frustrating as it might be, this might not be the time if you value your PHI or don’t want to get on the government radar.

      frustrating is an understatement. I am never going to be able to get myself out of here if i can’t get my mental health in order, and psychologist wants to go through testing for autism after i came in for an ADHD evaluation.

      I already put this shit off for years, I’m not pissing away more of my life now that I’ve already started this process.

        Do you really want to put your name on the list for the fun camps that they’re going to make for the people matching those medical records? I think you might be better off continuing to self evaluate instead of getting it professionally done at your absolute expense. But I know just about nothing of your specific situation so take that with all the salt it deserves

          I’ve probably been on a list since near birth anyway, just depends how long it takes them to dig through shit. Hell, might fastrack my process to GTFO if/when shit hits the fan.
