I’m excited to see what everyone else’s said, if we have a lot in common, and if some of us have some funny stuff too.

I am trying to find a place locally to take my assessment, but because I’m an adult, I need to pay for it. It’s so hard to get an adult diagnosis, like as if they are trying to prevent you from doing this, because it has no presence in an adult, so you’re wasting our time.
I hope I can bring back some quality lines.
I had to pay for mine too. Luckily, I found out that my local state university has a program for autistic people of all ages. I asked them for an assessment. While they didn’t conduct the assessments themselves, they gave a long list of psychologists in the area that did. I used that to find someone and was assessed within ~1.5 months. Perhaps there is something similar in your area. Maybe try internet searching for your location and autism services to find a starting point.
