my diagnosis observation video soon

hi, i haven't logged in for a little bit! my phone rang earlier and it seems i have my ados (autism diagnostic observation schedule) in a few weeks in february, by zoom video call. i guess it took almost a year and a half, but they said it could have even been as long as three years i'd be waiting, so at least it's arranged now. has anybody done this, and over a zoom video call? i'm kind of nervous, i don't like appointments and things like this. it gave me a list of things objects to have ready for it. i never use video calls at all, i'll be worrying about it until it's over. i'm an adult too so yeah, i don't know about how any of it works with adults.

in other news, omg is it cold today! i'm sitting here with my hood up and gloves on in the house! i need a hot cup of something.
 
It's great that you've got your appointment, I did a video call appointment recently on my laptop it wasn't hard to just follow the instructions on the letter and I waited in a virtual waiting room, then a worker appeared, it seemed fine.

It's fine to ask them anything you are unsure about, I expect they'll guide you through it. Good luck!
