Confusion around my MH issues & how this relates to my claims

I'm currently experiencing significant confusion and overwhelm. Just three months ago, I received diagnoses of ASD Level 1, ADHD, depression, anxiety disorder and EUPD. Recently, during a consultation with a different psychiatrist for ADHD medication, he declined to manage my medication, deeming my condition too severe for remote management. Instead, he strongly recommended a referral to CMHT (Community Mental Health Team). In the process, he altered my diagnosis of depression and anxiety disorder to 'mixed anxiety and depression, current moderate-to-severe.'

This change has left me unsettled, as I've researched 'mixed anxiety and depression' in the ICD11, which indicates it as a mild condition. I'm concerned that my anxiety symptoms are being solely attributed to autism, with the psychiatrist referring to 'autistic anxiety,' and that my depression symptoms may also be linked solely to autism.

Despite these label changes, I feel little has changed in terms of my actual experiences, and my challenges in communication and alexithymia make it difficult to articulate my symptoms. I haven't yet informed the DWP about the ASD/ADHD diagnoses, as I believe my functioning has shifted over the past few years due to depression, anxiety, and a seizure disorder. I have recently informed PIP about the new diagnoses though, since I had a PIP review form and that was sent off around November time.

Given this confusion, I'm unsure about the best course of action. Should I report these changes to the relevant authorities and let them make a determination? The situation is overwhelming, especially considering my recent referrals to social care assessment and peer support following CMHT rejection, as well as the strong recommendation from the psychiatrist to be under their care due to perceived risks. What steps do you recommend in navigating this complex and confusing situation?

I have been told before on this board/forum that any new diagnosis such as ASD/ADHD can wait until a review for ESA/UC. That it’s not something that needs to be reported right away.

Can you confirm this?

Thank you, guys.

My issue is that I've had these set of symptoms now for a few years and none of them can make their mind up. They say people with ASD/ADHD have depression/anxiety etc and I agree. But I also have terrible post-traumatic stress that's gone undiagnosed so my condition has actually got worse to the point my trauma therapist has paused our therapy and recommended CMHT referral and my ADHD psychiatrist said we can't manage you remotely, I need to make a strong recommendation to stabilise your mood under a CMHT.

It's terrible.
