I have just recently been diagnosed with adhd and autism. I have been told it could be several years, before I get any treatment, does anyone have any suggestions how I can move forward in understanding my situation.
I am also very isolated and friendless.
Thanks
Welcome and congratulations on your diagnoses!
In respect of autism, you may find Reframing Autism's Welcome Pack a useful early resource:

NAS also offers various resources, including for post-diagnosis support:

Hi
One thing that I do know that can help on this board, at least, is if you change the default name to a more distinctive username, and give yourself an icon. All the default profiles look the same, so it is very hard to stand out.
It is under Profile -> Edit Profile. You can click on the picture and change it, and type a new username.
