Very-late-diagnosis

Hello everyone. I’m in the process of getting assessed at the age of 71. I’m pretty sure, from what the assessor has said, that I’ll get an official diagnosis, and even if I don’t, I’m happy to self-diagnose. Understanding where I fit has come so late in life, but it’s wonderful. I’d love to know about any others on here who have come to this understanding as late in life as I have. Anyone out there???

  • Yes! I have finally plucked up the courage to ask him how he comes to know and understand so much about it. I thought he might possibly be autistic himself, as he told me up front he was dyslexic. HBlushs not autistic but both his children are. He is obviously a very committed father. So it was completely serendipitous for me - his website says nothing about autism, I just liked the sound of himBlush

    i can give details if anyone wants. He is in N Ireland but will work on Zoom
