Some thoughts on social anxiety vs ASD/Asperger's
I have social anxiety and am waiting on an ASD assessment. I think if it's just SA then once you get past the fear of interacting you have a naturally fair to good idea as to how to socially interact . Throw Asperger's /ASD into the mix and you'll have more trouble socially interacting even if you are not actually afraid of interacting with others. Take away the fear of interacting and you'll still have difficulty interacting .

The process starts in February. Then there is a second and possibly even further assessments beyond that. I have no idea how long the whole thing will take.

Re: Some thoughts on social anxiety vs ASD/Asperger's
The problem is trying not to catastrophise/second guess which I'm doing at a steady rate of knots. I'm more certain that I'm neurodivergent, and there is more going on than mental illness, than I am I'm on the spectrum.
It's a quest for answers even if the actual help and support out there is very thin on the ground. |
