I am 22 years old and today I received my report and Asperger's Diagnosis. I've been working closely with a lovely guy from Staffordshire who's really helped me so much. The healthcare professionals failed to diagnose me as a child, but after years of wondering what was "wrong" with me, I finally have answers - and it feels wonderful!
I also suffer with depression as a result of not getting the support I needed growing up, and I can safely say I feel a lot better now I've been diagnosed. I will now be able to get the support I need and I am really excited!
As a result of a late diagnoses, I am very shy and withdrawn and my social skills are very poor. Would anybody be kind enough to share some of their own experiences, perhaps if you have had a late diagnoses? How it has affected you, etc...
Would be great to hear your thoughts!
