ASD

Hi,

I am a 22 year old female student. 

I got diagnosed with ASD today, the man said two years ago it would have been labeled as Aspergers. 

Not to sure what i know overall about autism. I always have thought i had a crazy weird brain. I would like to fit in more. I am moving soon and panicking a lot. 

I am studying at university next year and i would like some advice on how student support works. what benefits disclosing has?

Anyway nice to meet you all!

  • My main advise would be to go onto the main university website and look for support.  Other avenues would be the student union.

    Just be careful who you tell.  

    There will  be others with ASD. But most will keep it a secret for good reasons.
