Hi All,
This is my first post here and wanted to reach out to others as im completely and utterly lost.
Im 37 and only recently been diagnosed with autism. It has answered alot of quested but also made be question alot more about who I am. I am seeing a psychologist weekly but came across this site and wondered if hearing other peoples experiences would help.
Currently im experiencing bouts of anger of not being able to put across to my partner what or how im feeling. This is resulting in meltdowns and arguments about the simplest of things. Does any one else experience this and if so how do you deal with it?
This maybe a different topic but it seems to be linked, well with me anyway. I have realised that i seem to live in a fantasy ideas, where for example there is a event coming up and think about how its going to be how i am going to be and then it comes along as its completely different and then i struggle to be in the moment and then get frustrated about it. Its even like that in my relationship, while growing up i had this ideal of what a relationship would be, white picket fences and butterfly essentially but the reality it isnt that. I know typing this out make me feel a little stupid a nieve, but its really not helping me. I wondered if anyone else has experenced this?
Look forward to hearing from you all
