Hello from Alabama

My name is Forrest.

I'm not sure if I actually have autism. However, all of the symptoms line up exactly, and it gives me so much clarity that I feel almost certain that I do. I joined this site in hopes that self diagnosis is sufficient. For the record, I am not, and have never been in, the UK. However, the other sites either require money or only do video chats, which I'm not comfortable with. So, I really hope to be accepted here. If I'm not, I apologize.

    Welcome aboard

    There's lots of undiagnosed people here - some on their diagnosis journey.    It's worth looking around the forum to see if anything chimes with you.

    I was diagnosed in my 40s - thought I was like everyone else until it was all pointed out to me,
