The day after I get back from Disney in April

[gap2368]

I am going to Disney the last week of April and the next day I will start the process of testing for ASD and ADHD ( I had the ADD dx in middle schools many moons ago and lost all records of it). the more I read/ learn about ASD the more I'm like that is me. I have had friend ask me if I have ASD even one saying they were sure. It will be a fun 3 hour office visit followed by some at home questions or this is what I was told the process is like where I am going. I have felt off from others around me for a longtime like something was different so ready to hear what the dr say.....excited scared you know all the emotions

Good luck with the testing. I hope you find whatever answers you need.

I can't imagine going right from a trip at Disney into the ASD testing right away the next day. I'd have concerns about the accuracy and fatigue because of being over-extended....I'm guessing there is no way to equalize those out by having a few days of rest in-between???

The testing and getting answers is definitely worth it. I was 32 when I got mine and it was a relief as it explained so much, and has helped me make better choices and plan better.

I understand. I think I would feel exactly the same way; I had to wait a very long time to get my “official” diagnosis, and when I finally got it, I just felt… numb.

Feel all of your feelings, and know that we will be holding a happy thought for you. And have a fantastic time in April!

there really is no way of moving it. I am on the wait list for an earler appointment but that seem slim as I will be out of town the first 11 days of April.

I do plan on getting back earlier then I normally would the day I leave I drive so I can leave really anytime and the apparent is in the afternoon

I am also trying to get on SSDI and the attorney has already stated. the paper work so time is also on the hurry

Also I am going to take off that morning of work so I can sleep in and late as I can so hope that helps some too
