hey @Asillyautisticfrog ! nice to meet you:) i’m currently waiting for an autism assessment, and potentially an adhd assessment too

Asillyautisticfrog · February 7

Hi @shannon_164 ! The waiting list can be pretty long but I did it privately. Hope you don't have too much longer to wait

shannon_164 · February 7

@Asillyautisticfrog thank you!! the wait lists are sooo long😩the wait for an autism assessment in northern ireland (the part of the uk i live in) is 5 years… but hey at least im on the waitlist now i guess!

Asillyautisticfrog · February 7

@shannon_164 I live in Northern Ireland too!

shannon_164 · February 7

@Asillyautisticfrog aw really? that’s so cool! most people tend to be from mainland uk on here lol but that’s so cool!!

Asillyautisticfrog · February 7

@shannon_164 yeah I mean I didn't think I'd meet anyone from Northern Ireland on here 🤣

shannon_164 · February 7

@Asillyautisticfrog you’re the first person i’ve met on here from northern ireland i think! i’ve been here for like 6 ish months now lol

Hii, welcome to the mix! I’m autistic too 🙂

Asillyautisticfrog · February 7

@shannon_164 funny I'd meet someone from northern ireland on my first post.
My school's out on midterm earlier than most so none of my friends are around.

Asillyautisticfrog · February 7

I don't know where I was going with the end of that lol
