quinze , 4 days ago @PossiblyAutistic @actuallyautistic The Divergent Conversations Podcast has a "What is Autism" series that goes through the diagnosis criteria, with a lot of non-trivial examples for each aspect. I hope that the psychiatrist has an up-to-date knowledge of the full spectrum of autism, but in case they don't, reflecting on specific situations matching these criteria might help get a more accurate diagnosis.
