Self-harm

AnneMargaret

Hello. I am Anne, 23. I am new tonight.

I was diagnosed last September but still waiting for alot of thigns to fall into place for me.

I have been misdiagnosed twice. First with clinical depression at 16 and then with Personality Disorder at 17. I stuck with that til last summer when a psychotherapist I saw said about Autism.

I've self harmed since i was about 11. In many different ways. I've also tried to end things a few times and been in mental hospital a few times.

I rarely hear of anyone else who cuts, burns or overdoses and just wondered if anyone could help me with this? Sometimes i wonder if i have Autism as i don't feel i fit in with anyone or anything. I am very confused.

Thank you.

Anne.
