A New Chapter

Hey Everyone!

I'm fresh and new to the group. 

After a 2 year wait, I finally got a diagnosis confirmation today.

2 years feels like nothing on top of the previous 40 years of feeling a misunderstood misfit in a world of strange beings, with senses being constantly overloaded, however from today's diagnosis,  it feels like a huge weight has been lifted and I can begin to understand myself and the world around me.

To all those struggling to get a diagnosis or waiting for a diagnosis,  hang on in there.  If the waiting feels too much and like it's taking too long, give them a nudge. Absolutely nothing to lose.

  • on top of the previous 40 years of feeling a misunderstood misfit in a world of strange beings,

    Nicely put, I'm sure many here will identify with that line.

    Only waited forty years eh? I think you'll find a few around here that can match that, and more than one or two who waited longer.

    You're certainly not alone here Nebbo.
