I was diagnosed really late with Autism in December of last year. Throughout my childhood and teenage years, I was always referred to as the girl with Anger issues. I cannot stand the term anger issues, being constantly told you've got some sort of issue. I have always struggled so much when it comes to trying to understand my emotions and what's going on inside my head. I still struggle really bad to this day. I have a partner, We've been together for a year and a half, he's one of the best people in my life. He's been so understanding about my diagnosis, letting me know he's always going to be there for me. But sometimes I start arguments over really silly things, which results in me getting angry and upset because the emotions inside my head start to get too much. almost like I don't know how to control them. I'm lucky that my boyfriend knows what to do In those situations, but I feel constant guilt and regret when I get mad at him. It makes me constantly think that I don't deserve him. if anyone has any tips on how I can control the anger better or if Anyone can relate to this? I'd really appreciate knowing I'm not alone on this.
side note, Ive been going to therapy for 2 years now, and it's helped massively. it's just nice to hear other peoples experiences.
