Getting used to me

Hello. I'm new here. I'm in my 50s and just been diagnosed. I'd had my suspicions for ages, but just recently formally 'labelled' Aspie. I feel like I'm just meeting myself for the first time. Does/did anyone else feel this on being diagnosed?

Hi Chris,

Welcome!

I'm glad you've received your confirmation, and it all makes sense for you. I'm really pleased for you.

I'm still moving between "Yes I am" and "no I'm not" and that's with a private diagnosis. But I'm sure I will get there, with a little help.

You really will get there. I think no matter what a piece of paper says, you know in your heart if you are or aren't...or maybe I'm being a little naive! Good luck with the process.
