What was the straw that broke the camels back?

Hey, I wanted to know peoples personal stories of their Autism emerging and what caused the sudden on set of the autism awareness within yourselves? I think I split when my mum died and I found her, I couldn’t cope with that and I’ve tried to burry it impossibly.

  • I had no inkling before my daughter's CBT therapist suggested that she might be autistic. From how my daughter had described me, the therapist thought that I might be autistic as well. I had always considered that I never quite fitted in and had some quite odd reactions to sounds, smells and textures. However, I thought autistic people were like Rain Man, and I was nothing like that.
