It starts to make sense at last

Long story short,

Entire career a mess

But supported by wonderful wife who got me when everyone around just regarded me as "a wrong un".

Lockdown bought a disaster of my wife developing early onset vascular dementia and she is now taken from me by the sainted NHS. So I am suddenly alone in a world that doesn’t know how to accommodate anyone who is different. My odd behaviour lead to me betting pushed out of the local sports club. 

Recently I am being told I am autistic.

I am very angry about the sports club as I am excluded from a community I need to be part of. What else can I say?

    I am sorry to understand how difficult your journey has been (thank you for sharing it with us; that we may better realise your outlook and point of view).

    Now you have arrived here, in this Online Community, my hope is that, in time, you may have the opportunity to begin to feel less alone in the World as we are accustomed to accommodating our respective differences. 

    (Of course, we are all human too, so a miscommunication / misunderstanding / talking at crossed purposes is still possible and may sometimes occur.  That said, in our more Autistic inclination, we are perhaps more likely to say so and address such things directly - should they arise ...rather than leaving things to fester until things deteriorate into a greater issue).

    Welcome. 

    When you are ready; we are here to learn more and talk about those interests which you are happy to scare.
