Hi there, I am new here. I just received my diagnosis last week.
I am feeling like I have arrived on a new alien planet ... Honestly, I am struggling.
I feel like I am feeling every possible emotion in response to my diagnosis: relief, understanding (but at the same time confusion), frustration (how did no one spot this before?), isolation.... You name it! It's a rollercoaster.
I was wondering if anyone had any advice for me (and other who are newly diagnosed) - any tips, ideas for connecting to others on the spectrum, book recommendations, online support groups....
Thank you ️
Hi. it was and very much is still the same for me (as it is with many).

It is nice to know I am not alone - thank you :)
