  • Im not normally one for going down the moaney route but by god i just dont know what to do. Ive spent 3 yrs ,, actually 23yrs if im counting my early problems being mis diagnosed, labelled a nuisance, labelled as quarelsome etc etc .. im now finally discharging myself from mental health services due to mis diagnosis and i bought a car.

    I should be feeling brilliant, well i was until about a few days ago as after about 2 weeks of celebrating my new found confidence, accepting my diagnosis of aspergers from 2015, telling my freinds about my autism I am absolutely overloaded beyond belief.

    I actually cant see properly but my head is still going a million miles an hour but my body keeps bumping into things and dropping things.  I feel like I have bambi legs !!

    Has anyone experienced this and can give me any ideas please on how to rest. Im sleeping fine, exhausted actually and having a good 8 hours but i just cant seem to catch up with myself....

    Thanks
