So I am 25 female diagnosed with ASD a few months ago, I’m finding it hard to accept not that it changes anything about me. I’ve always known something was different from being a child but was diagnosed with OCD etc. I decided that to go for an assessment just to talk and see what they thought which resulted in ASD. I guess where I can socialise etc Can they get it wrong or are they pretty good with diagnosing? I don’t know just wondered if anyone els was in denial at first.
Hello and welcome to the forum,
This checklist may help you find a way forward. I hadn’t considered autism until I was 60. Now I realise I am autistic, and the diagnosis confirmed it.

Thankyou I will have a read. I have been diagnosed after 2 years of looking into it. I don’t know I guess being diagnosed later in life it’s hard to come to terms with? And I just question they got it right even though I know they are if that makes sense lol thanks for replying
