| Sounds like you have a good assessor who knows what they’re doing. That’s great. Good luck for the rest of the assessment. It is quite an exhausting process but worth it. Which bits are exhausting? I have done the first bit which was more likely to exhaust the assessors than me! I talked far too mu... |

| I feel we probably proof read everything we write before posting/sending. Although definitely there are some autistics who have special talent for spelling, grammar, writing, proofreading etc. We are good at patterns and spotting errors.
