Diagnosed a year ago and still coming to terms with it

Hi all,

I'm a 33 year old male diagnosed with autism and ADHD last year. It was recommended I seek a diagnosis after years of very severe mental health issues and, lo and behold, turns out I am indeed on the spectrum. I still don't know what to make of it but as time goes on I realise I can attribute more and more of my challenges and eccentricities to this, and it might help to reach out to others like myself. I've always been friends with autistic people but I'm not yet ready to tell people I know about my diagnosis (with a couple of exceptions).
