I'm not sure

Hi Everyone,

I don't know where to start. So I'll start with how I feel.

Sometimes, when I'm in a busy environment, like pub. the voices seem to meld into one sound and it makes me want to run out of the room because it's too loud.

I notice things and remember things other people don't even notice.

Sometimes I start crying for no reason.

I feel self conscious all the time, like I'm being judged.

I'm anti social because I don't feel like anyone understands me.    

As a consequence, I drink too much, which I hate myself for.

I hope I can get some sensible input cos I feel like I'm going nuts and I saw a YouTube video of someone who is diagnosed with Autism and he basically described me.

Thank You in advance 

Andy xx

  • Hi and welcome here. I'm glad you found this place, it is a great place to be full of lovely people and a lot of love and support. Based on what you said I think you definitely should seek an assessment, and before seeing the GP you could write down how you feel and how you are, that way it's less pressure on you when it comes to seeing the GP.

    This happens to me as well. When there's too much noise my head spins and I can't process anything and have to get out fast or I'll have a meltdown.

    You are definitely not alone. Please let us know how you get on with seeing the GP and starting the ball rolling for an assessment.
