Confused

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! I have been diagnosed with Level 2 ASD. Feel free to ask any questions and read my profile.

    I wasn't in denial at any point. I had always suspected that there was something different about me.

  • Hello and thank you, I have level 1. I mean I was certain when going through the process and now being told you are autistic it just doesn’t seem real after all this time. But it doesn’t change anything I guess just more understanding why I do or fell certain things. Thankyou for your support
