Here goes

Hello everyone. I dont know how to start. All my life i have had mental health problems and to be honest a lot has happend through the years. I am in my mid 30s and only recently being told by the mental health team they think I am autistic and so I contacted the autism service and i had a letter to explain they would like to talk with me. I honestly dont know how to live properly, I never have. My memory problems im having and my mental health have become worse over the years and they continue. But there is a whole lot to how im feeling each day and emotions never know how to stay level. Hopfully I can explain more as time goes on. The mental health team advised I come to the site and understand a little more. I look on how to help myself and I dont know if im going through a burn out? here i am. I want to learn and understand. I dont feel heard majority of the time so im grateful for any help I can get

  • When I was awaiting my diagnosis - as few good books by Dr Luke Beardon and then You-Tube

    I've seen some channels mentioned but I like Orion Kelly, Autistic AF, Autism from the Inside, Autistic Not Alien and I'm Autistic, Now What .  Some of these have good info on the assessments and the criteria, others videos are just good for discovering and understanding Autism
