How long have you been diagnosed?

I have been diagnosed for 15 months now after of lifetime of angst about the feeling I am was not right. Now I got an explanation as to why I felt like I did and why I could never get promotions at the interview stage. I can know something inside out but if asked a question I go blank.

I am still learning about myself whilst dealing with the occasional imposter syndrome. I think I will be learning for a long time yet. The masking I have done over the years is now like an onion slowly peeling back layers with tears in my eyes trying desperately to get to know the 'real me'.

Personality is a funny thing.  At this point the real you will probably be a mix of your true self and the NT traits you have been forced to adopt and adapt to throughout your life.

I was like that at interviews i'd be over qualified for the job, i should of easily of got them but i used to physically shake , i was a wreck,  I tried all sorts to cope with it, even having a few drinks before i went into the interview, i still messed up in them. :-(
