From "professional" to "autistic"... where do I go now?

I am qualified to help others, yet, I have been unable to do so since my diagnosis.

  • Do not look at your diagnosis as the problem but as the point where you start your new journey.

    You know what you are good at, your strengths, and if like @Plastic and myself (nerdy engineers/geeks) then start small and build up your confidence on the little things you can do.  I know it takes time to re-build confidence, enthusiasm and motivation from what appears a car crash although you can use it to your advantage.  

    Make some notes/lists and when you do one add a tick/mark (x ticks demonstrates you have achieved something.

    I am stopped in reading the new Victoria Honeybourne book "A Practical Guide to Happiness in Adults on the Autism Spectrum" at the point I need to make a list.  Once I am ready then I will write the list and carry on through it.

  • I need to borrow that when you've finished it. lol

  • Have to work out if it can be shared in/on Kindle Books
