First of all, I live in the southwestern U.S. I was diagnosed as an aspie by my therapist. That sent me into an obsession of getting THE diagnosis. There are no resources in the town I live in so I contacted a neuropsychologist in a town 180 miles away. This was three weeks ago. I've called to make sure they have all of the info they need and left a couple of messages. No response. I know it can take a long time,(I've been at it for 8 weeks) but shouldn't I at least get a "I'm workin' on it." response?
I'm seeking a professional diagnosis for a couple of small accommodations at work, plus I just want a diagnosis. (I think that's the OCD talking.) The anxiety over the whole thing is bugging the heck out of me.... When I want something I usually find a way.
Is it worth it to press on? What/Who should I contact next? My therapist is unable to give me a formal diagnosis for work purposes. What would happen if I just talk to my boss? The main issue I need help with doesn't usually come up until the spring. I don't want the disclosure to look like I'm trying to get out of a particular part of my job.
Ugh, I'll quit rambling. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
