Can't cope with diagnosis

I was encouraged to go for assessment for autism. I did and now they have said I'm autistic. This has made me very upset. I feel that now I have been diagnosed I will only ever be seen as autistic and I think I feel hopeless or lost.

Does anyone understand this?

Thank you. I have read all your replies and will continue to think about what you have all said whilst I try to figure out how I'm now feeling. It was very nice and helpful to have your points of view on the issue of diagnosis. So, thank you for being positive and for replying.
