Hi

I thought I should pop in and say hello. Earlier this week, after many years wondering, and a long process of diagnosis, I received a diagnosis of autism (at the age of 50). I regard that as positive, as it is a bit of a relief to know what is going on, and hopefully I can use that knowledge to help understand and manage anxiety, and the depression that sometimes / often causes for me. Anyway, it's good to be here, somewhere where hopefully I don't need to worry about being myself, and I look forward to popping in to speak to other people who will understand.
