Hi folks,
After lurking around reading other people's posts for a while I've decided to get involved.
I'm a 44 year old male. Not diagnosed but on the waiting list for assessment. I am married with two kids who are both diagnosed (both aspergers and one also selective mutism). I hold down a full time job. I have issues with angsiety and depression which I'm currently back on medication for. I also have alcohol and drug issues, which I am in counselling for. I have some self harm issues too. But apart from that I'm fine
I'm hoping to talk to some people and maybe get a little support or offer a little support to others. I hope to get to know you all a bit better in the future.
Thanks for reading.
welcome!
Welcome to the Community and thank you for your honesty. Talking (although virtually!) is really powerful. Hopefully you’ll get your diagnostic assessment soon.
Hi JoeChip, welcome.
I'm relatively new here too. Good place to find whatever you are going through you are not alone. Lot's of resources and links too.
Hi Joe. I'm awaiting assessment myself and have some similar issues to you. The forum can be a good place to find advice and to realise you're not alone in being who you are.
