So, in the middle of last year, I wrote an entry listing [my reasons for believing that I'm autistic](/2022/05/16/coming-out-as-autistic/). + +In case there are any skeptics out there, **I've finally been officially diagnosed as autistic by a registered psychotherapist**. I went through a very lengthy and thorough assessment process. I didn't have much doubt about the fact that I'm autistic, but it's still better to have a formal diagnosis than readers taking my word for it. + +I should receive a formal report shedding more light on my diagnosis, which I expect to help me in writing about autism as well. But for now, I just wanted to let everyone know I've been diagnosed. -- cgit v1.2.3
