Hello,
I was recently diagnosed with autism and whilst everyone has asked if it’s been such a relief. I feel guilty and sad that there’s a part of me which feels no relief but regret for finding out.
it was suggested to me by my psychologist and come really out of the blue. I feel like I’m grieving for a life and brain that I was working so hard for in treatmemt for a big majority of my life that was never really attainable as that actually isn’t how my brain is even programmed.
I was just wondering if anyone else felt this? I feel more disconnected from people than I did before and almost a level of resentment of why can’t things just be that simple for me.
I don’t know how to voice this as again everyone keeps saying what a relief I must be feeling. It’s like they gave me a diagnosed and instead of clicking together, everything feels more jumbled up.
Thank you
