Just joined this community, figuratively and literally. I'm not yet diagnosed, not sure what to do about that, but fairly certain that I'm divergent and have been for a very long time. I started to become suspicious and aware of my differences only a few years ago. Supported by my family, I feel at times like I'm starting to learn about the world completely a fresh. It's interesting. It's daunting and it's quite scary. Let's see where this goes...
Welcome to the community!
Thanks Rosie
Hi Arise,
Welcome to our online community! We hope you enjoy chatting with the other members of the community.
Our website has a lot of useful information about diagnosis, including a pre-diagnosis guide for adults who think they might be autistic. We also have advice about broaching the subject if you have a family member or friend who you think may be autistic.
You can also browse our website for lots of other advice and guidance on a wide range of information about autism, including what autism is, socialising and relationships, employment, benefits and social care.
To find diagnostic services in your local area, you can try searching on our Autism Services Directory, which can be found here. The Directory also includes listings for support and social groups for autistic people, their families and friends.
Kind Regards,
Rosie Mod
