Hi everyone!
My name's Sophie and I was diagnosed just days before my 21st birthday. If you're also late diagnosed, can you give me any tips or advice on where to go from here?
My friends and family are pretty supportive, I think my main difficulty is just understanding how to identify and meet my own needs.
Are there any steps to take to discover it or are there any ways to research and understand more?
I'd love to connect with people who are like me as only my partner is neurodivergent.
Maybe we have something in common e.g musicals, dinosaurs, age, gardening etc?
Hello Sophie,
I wasn't diagnosed myself until I was 24.
I do have varied interests including musicals (I have seen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, We Will Rock You).
