Hello everyone,
I am a 50 year old man who has just been diagnosed with Asperger's. I am not quite sure what happens next and feel a bit alone.
Has anyone got any advice?

I must say i don't envy the psych's job trying to untangle all of the issues that some aspies have when we are so rubbish at communicating! Well done to the locum for decoding you!
Misdiagnosis with other issues (e.g manic depression and all sorts of other problems) is quite common for people on the spectrum so i hope you are getting a full reappraisal in the light of the latest diagnosis?
the other thing to say is that the condition causes lots of mental health issues. If you can get to understand the impact of the aspergers then you may be able to unpick some of your other problems.
really liked your different pair of glasses comparison, it seems just like that for me too.
