Hi I’m new here, recently diagnosed, feeling very overwhelmed with how to explain it to friends and family. And what to say, also learning about who I am and slowly unmasking. Has anyone got any tips or advice?? Thanks

Welcome to the forum. Overwhelm and confusion is very normal when finding out we're autistic. My advice would be to take your time and read, listen, research and talk about your experiences with other ND people here. You'll find a lot of us probably experience the same things and will be able to offer advice or just empathise with you and make you feel less alone and confused.
I'm sure a mod or a more helpful member will be along with some useful links from the NAS website.
