Diagnosed today

ZombieBiker

Hi,

I just received my diagnosis today. I am 53 years of age and this was not something I expected to happen to me. 

I don't know how to process it to be frank. I've always been told I'm a bit odd, sensitive and antisocial. 

I have to process this. Has anyone else here got any tips on how to process it?

Cheers,

Amanda

  • Hello and welcome to the 'Latelings' Club. I am coming up for 3 years post diagnosis (in my fifties) so can relate to your situation. I have found that I have been judged and labelled and the world has become a much more intolerant place for me to exist in.

    I wish I could say things get better. Some things do and you will over time begin to understand yourself better.

    Be kind to yourself it is not your fault, you are not broken just different.
