Hello, I’m new

I’ve come to the forum to find identification. I believe I am on the AS but haven’t had a formal diagnosis. I’m in my sixties and autism wasn’t talked about when I was growing up. I may not post much, but if I get identification, it might jolt me from my lethargy and make me go for diagnosis.

I’m pleased to meet you all

  • Hello Snowcake,

    I too am 67 and have all my life felt and am different from everyone else, a square peg trying to fit into a round hole. I've always been diagnosed with smi given anti-depressants etc but only recently been diagnosed with autism ....everything seems to clicked into place and reading your post makes a lot of sense...but what I can't get my head around is that I have lived my life a lie... your guidance is desperately needed please
