To the person who will assess me for autism
This is a letter I never intended to share. I never sent it, nor expected I would. But prior to receiving my formal autism diagnosis last year, I grappled with a lot of anxiety about whether or not my assessor would hear me, trust me, and believe me. I wrote this letter then, before even meeting her, as an exercise in self-expression, and as a way to sort through my own thoughts, fears, feelings, and history. But upon finishing it, I thought perhaps there may be some value in sharing it with the world—in connecting through these stories, whether they be familiar as your own face, or utterly foreign. So here it is. I wish you warmth and wonder as you read!
