Hi,
I'm 41 and was diagnosed when I was 39 and whilst this answered a lot of questions I had about myself it has also made things a lot harder. I find I am distancing myself from people who do not understand me and never have (family mainly). I have a partner and we have been together 20 years but now things are changing, my partner wants more friends (of which I am jealous because I do not have any at all) but I find it difficult with out them and I find myself on my own a lot.
Sorry for the rant but does anyone else struggle with anything similar?
Thanks
Hi LS
Welcome to this forum
loads of us are loners here.
I am getting better at socialising.
If your partner wants friends dont stop them its good for them and will make them stronger.
Hi aidie
Thanks that's good advice. It's just difficult to except the change.
