New Diagnosis

Wraithilliam

Was recently given a diagnosis of ASD just before christmas 2024 and told I need an ADHD test as well... At 57 I feel I have probably missed out on a lot due to this but I am glad that I have finally been diagnosed now. I have never had many proper friends but find it easy talking to people, my wife says I over share and I have always been aware I sometimes upset people without understanding why. I have alway had an organised nature; lists of albums, books I've read, videos, DVD, coins, in game equipment in online games etc etc and even a spreadsheet of my life... Apparently this is not normal who knew!?

  • Hi, pretty much the same here, diagnosed at 53 a week before Christmas with an ADHD test advisory. 

    My assessor asked me " how did it take this long for you to get diagnosed" , hey I thought I was normal, well for me anyway, if only we came with a what is normal handbook.
