I am a 33yr old woman and have just received a level 1 autism diagnosis. It has shook me a bit more than I thought as although I was confident I had autism the emotional response I had to the confirmation was unexpected.
Now what do I do? I don't know what I'm supposed to do now or how to view my life. I don't really have friends and no parents to talk to. I don't want to unload too much on my husband and just want advice as to what I should do now.
How much of what I think is me is truly me? And how much os the fake me I put on for the world and how do I distinguish the two? I just need some advice from others who have been diagnosed late in life and how you handled it and figured out who you were.
Thank you
