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.

  • Hi and welcome. I'm in my early 70s and was diagnosed a couple of months ago. Events following my retirement led to a massive burnout that affected me for years. That was a real pain. Diagnosis wasa  relief to me as it explained so many of my failures throughout my life.

    Give yourself time. A burnout can last weeks, months or years. It really depends how serious it is and how it affects you. Mine came after years of stress.
