Hi, I'm Ash - you might know me from ARMY Bluesky (if not, hi! Hello! Nice to meet you!) I am a chaos gremlin in need of an autism assessment. I have found someone who can help me, but it isn't cheap. And this has become more important and necessary for me for a bunch of reasons, both personal and professional. This isn't new for me - lots of people with various degrees and things have said "holy heck you are likely this thing" so I have been basically treating my life as if that's true but now I need the super special fancy paper to prove it. (Or completely disprove it, but hey). I don't have the money right now and I don't have the resources to keep putting myself in debt. But having this answer, this formal thing, means no one can argue with me about it, means I can get help in new ways that might make my life even more awesome.

I won't lie. I know life is hard for everyone. I know we are all passing the same 20 dollars around as we try to keep each other alive. I hate that I have to ask. But if you can help, even a little, I'd be so, so grateful.

This amount covers the whole assessment and a little bit for anything I haven't thought of. It's via an Actually Autistic professional human in my province and it will take literal months (because everything does) but it could help me so, so, so much.
