This is why you should get an autism diagnosis, and it can be essential for you!! Lots of people don’t want an autism diagnosis and I respect that’s, but for the people on the fence about it, there could be so much more benefit from having an official diagnosis of autism. I have listed 3 top reasons to seek an official diagnosis below.
1.Access Help An official autism diagnosis can allow you access to help that maybe available to you in your area like therapy and group sessions that otherwise would be restricted to official diagnosis patients.
2.Access Support Again having an official diagnosis of autism will allow you to access any areas of support form your local government or authorise. This could be medical, social or financial support for you.
3.Self Development A huge part of the diagnosis was a self accepting aspect, as lots of people who are in limbo with autism diagnosis never really accept themselves for who they are. An official diagnosis gives you a starting point to do this.
