Was diagnosed in October and struggling

GemmaC

Hi everyone, I am 43 years old, I received my diagnosis in October. I would really like to talk to other late diagnosed people. I am burnt out and really struggling. I would really like to talk experiences and journeys with like minded people as I’m feeling very alone.

  • Not sure if I qualify.  I got myself diagnosed when I was at University.  I knew I had "Aspergers", as it was referred to back then, long before but hadn't actually got a formal diagnosis until I went and sought it out for myself at UCL.  It was basically just a formality at that point.   Unfortunately I've since lost the paperwork and I might have to jump through the hoops again to try and regain it. 
    But enough justifying myself.  
    Do you need help with anything specific?
