Bringing notes to autism assessment

Seeking Advice

I’ve been writing down all my symptoms (psychological, social, interests, phobias, sensory, stims, etc) in a very detailed and organized doc. Ive been doing this for a couple months. My document is now extremely long and detailed, and I think I’m ready for an assessment.

Here’s my question: has anyone brought notes with them to their assessment? I usually blank in social situations which is why I think bringing my document is necessary. Could I print one for me, and one for the psychologist? Would I tell them beforehand?

Stuff like this really stresses me out and I just want to know if it’s normal to do/if anyone has ever done this.
