Why sm i so angry that i was diagnosed as an adult and not when i was younger

fernminion95

i was diagnosed at 29 with autism, i have reached the anger stage of acceptance, i am not sure why i am so angry i think it is because if i was diagnosed earlier i may of received the help i needed at school and people would of treated me differently instead of bullying me, i went my whole life being bullied for being different, i also have fibromyalgia now so that doesn't help, i struggle to make friends i just keep myself to myself and do my work, does anyone have any advice, how did you feel when you were diagnosed later on in life.

  • I know kids who get bullied because they're autistic, sometimes I wonder the same, but then also wonder if I would've kept from things in life. As it stands, it seems there's very few out there who actually realise what the differences are and why they matter.

    On the Firbro note - I've found taking hormone balancing supplements most of my life have really helped. I've gone off and on various ones and have noticed a difference. Would recommend Crystal Star, starting half dose to see if it helps. They're available in the Uk through iHerb https://uk.iherb.com/search?kw=crystal%20star but their website helps recommend which might help.
