Hi,
I'm new at this. I'm 48 and have no idea if autism is what makes me who I am as I can't seem to get it dismissed as a reason. Over the years I've been labelled with many tags by health care professionals who have tried to explain my bouts of depression. All I know is that I've always been the same. It's my personality. The only way I can desrcibe it is that it must be how a person feels when they say they feel like a man trapped in a womans body. I can recognise many of the characteristics on sites like this that I see in myself. I'm at my wits end as I just want to know who I am. I find it very frustrating and debilertating at the thought of anther 40 years of not knowing.
Anyone with any ideas, I'd be grateful to hear them.
