You can do this?? I haven’t gotten diagnosed cuz I thought they needed my parents testimony of how I was as a child and my mom will lie to get people to think I’m NT

It depends on who you see, some practitioners will give you a harder time but a lot will hear you out

yeah there are a bunch of other factors, but because i’m 18 they got testimony from other people aside from my parents because i made it clear i didn’t want them informed because of personal circumstances
