Unfortunately no answers, but pretty sure I have this - currently going through a formal, private, diagnosis process, and find gauging what I'm feeling very tough. Did the emotion wheel with my therapist a while back and kinda helped, but I think my big problem is it takes some serious thinking to actually gauge what that feeling is, and as with you, I mostly feel just a few feelings most of the time

After this codeforward conference and govai which was running at the same time, I got a better sense of the wild amount of fomo and hype and llms being pushed on teams without having real agency, and I get the anti-llms reaction by developers a bit more. Also realized, through my new found lenses, how political software development is in companies (which I traumatizingly didn’t realize before), and damn am I glad to not be in this rat race. #llms 1/

Okay assessment done I am fucking EXHAUSTED!!!! He says I get no autism points for my emotive facial expressions and gesticulation (I’m the human emoji after all) but whilst not giving me a definitive diagnosis and I have to wait a week he says there are several areas that speak to an ADS diagnosis Probably the fact I spent the entire two and a half hours staring outside the window whilst waxing lyrical about “I don’t know” or when asked to define specific emotions or “happiness is a lack of sadness I guess?” and “no I find most people irritating” and “I don’t really feel anything at all” when asked to talk about family stuff And I’m going to send him my report from my private assessor :) So fingers crossed I get declared autism Started to shut down at the end so glad that’s over

Assessment step one: arrive to find the reception is never “manned” and I’m supposed to “wait until I’m called” so naturally I’m going more insane by the second wondering at what point should I wander the halls or go back downstairs to reception saying I haven’t been called but also if I leave then maybe they will call me when I’m not there and then I’ll miss my assessment and then I’ll just DIE!!!!!!
