Hello from a newbie!

Hello!

I am currently waiting for diagnosis process to start after being granted a referral by my GP. I'm looking forward to getting an answer because I have always felt like something was broken or wrong with me because I've never fit in and struggled with a lot of "normal" things. But being told I may be autistic was a huge relief to me because I know a few autistic people who are awesome. I also feel extremely validated. I'd love to hear your experiences of diagnosis.

    Hello 

    Welcome to the community forum.

    I was diagnosed when was 20 years old by my friend dad (had a good relationship with until he died); mine was ignored and tried to carry on. Also bullying. 

    Teachers knew and didn't tell anyone. Thought had learning disabilities.
