Literally joined about 5 minutes ago, happy to have taken that step.
I got my diagnosis in December privately through my job's health insurance. Things have been interesting since then.
I tried to just take it in my stride and use the official diagnosis as a way of surviving in the workplace but the enormity of it has been unavoidable.
A lifetime (I'm 41) of moments have blended into simply a lifetime that I'm seeing with a new perspective. I need to do some major re-filing in my brain.
I've misunderstood myself and been so harsh on myself all my life.
I find it almost impossible to ask for help but have started to do it recently (and been EXHAUSTED afterwards every time!).
Joining this community is something I think will be helpful, I'm pleased to be here.
