New diagnosis- starting to get a bit wound up

Hi all,

I'm four weeks into being diagnosed. I'm 50+. Just wondered if you went through a negative patch soon after getting a diagnosis. I'm in a strange place at the moment (stranger even than normal everyday life of course) I've started unconsciously reevaluating all my past, post-diagnosis (tiring) I guess this is a normal reaction?

  • It’s been a year since I got diagnosed and I’m still coming to terms with it. 

    Whats hard is you hope things will change but they don’t, you still experience the same difficulties/issues, there is some sort of peace knowing why you experience these though. 

    One of the hardest things I’m finding at the moment is the lack of support for adults.
