Hello Hello Hello

Hi,

I'm new here! I'm a 36 year old with a long long history of psychiatric issues. However recently my consultant said she believes I am Autistic with co morbidities.

I'm now starting the long journey to assessment and diagnosis.

I would love to meet other Autistic adults.

I should add that in my opinion my psychiatric issues (depression, anxiety and schizophrenia) all stem from being autistic and trying (but failing) to find my way in a predominantly non-autistic world. Still so relieved that i found out i'm an autist at 35 because so many people never do. This community has been invaluable. Hope it helps you too

Hi HodgePodge,

I'm 42 and waiting for a diagnosis (I'm new here too). Long history of psychiatric issues too and they are looking at me having been misdiagnosed now.

I've gone through Right to Choose for my diagnosis and it's apparently only 12-18 weeks so maybe something you could look in to?
