diagnosed today as an adult.

not a shock really as my child has asd too, but it being official is a little strange.

will be nice to talk to other people here.

so just saying hello for now.

    i feel relieved knowing. it explains so much and as you say, the main reason to know is for self knowledge and self understanding.

    i'm not feeling the need to tell everyone, but even telling family feels strange.

    had some mixed responses when my child was diagnosed. some in the family found it hard to accept. i guess i'm alittle scared that they will be the same (negative) towards me.

    i guess it's all early days.
