After 29 years of thinking I am the only person like me, I find myself here.
10 years of what felt like battling I find I am autistic. I am everything other than prepared for both a life of autism and this post!
Right now I am fairly uneducated on the topic, other than knowing myself. Right now I am struggling with the 'no cure' concept. This to me says life will always be a struggle and i'm not sure i can accept that. The few people in my life are very supportive, the only person with the issue is me. I am very smart academically but when it comes to socialising i am left feeling like the smartest dumb person ever!
I've been told that connecting with others on the spectrum will help me to feel less isolated, so here i am, my first post! its only taken half an hour to write.
If anyone has any advice, please feel free to share it with me.
