Newly diagnosed with moderate asd

NAS50857

I've been diagnosed within the last 2 weeks having moderate asd. Although this diagnosis was inevitable and initially I was happy to have a reason for being the way I am but since getting the diagnosis I an feeling more and more lost and anxious about this. I don't know what to do next who to talk to it how to process my emotions about it. 

I'm finding myself snapping at the littlest things and I hate that and I feel like I'm pushing the people closest to me away. 

I really don't know what to do or how to feel

  • Hi there, I was diagnosed with Aspergers in December last year. It can be a bit of an emotional rollercoaster afterwards, relief at getting an explanation/annoyed at not being diagnosed earlier/upset at the assessment report/kind of enlightened when you’re suddenly able to look at all the things that have happened through the lense of ASD.
