Just something I wonder about, I’m living with my mother while I’m working away from my home, each day just amazes me how I got this far!

Hi Roy
To help me with context may I ask how old you are? Im 68, was diagnosed late, just four years ago..
To answer your question - the autism diagnosis explained pretty much everthing, especially in the light of abuse which led to C-PTSD which I am also diagnosed with. However knowing why I was/am like I was/am doesn’t help at all, its like understanding why say a car is broken but not having or being able to access the tools to fix it. ie: me.
In fact the knowledge has made things worse, particularly as those who can help me won’t , and who want to help me can’t. I think it is might only be a matter of time before I make another attempt on my life.
I don’t understand why people congratulate others on receiving an autism diagnosis, its not magical or wonderful or a special gift, well not in my experience.
I hope you’re okay this morning
