Hello everybody. I’m still in this no man’s land awaiting the results of my assessment. I was seen on Feb 1st and my husband has been called in since then to complete a questionnaire on me. I’m not sure which one it was. What I really want to know is what does it look like to unmask? I know that this is one think that I will hope to be able to do when I get the results but what does that entail? I’m in my late 60’s and have built up this very respectable, quietly polite, ladylike demeanour……which becomes increasingly difficult to sustain. I struggle to think of conversations to have with people. What do I have to do to make changes? Thank you.
I think at our ages, im 53, it is pretty much impossible to unmask. I have no realy idea what autistic me is but given half a chance he would not be holding down a job and having a normal looking life like I do. I have learn to push myself less, give my self more me time and expect less in general.
take care.
