Just diagnosed

Hi, my daughter is 11 and received her diagnosis yesterday. 

I have a question for any others who are diagnosed (self or official)  

if there was one thing someone could have told you when you were diagnosed what would it had been?

is there anything you wish you had known? 

thank you

  • Only when I first started driving - few motorcycle crashes, but nothing serious. I think being an aspie makes me a better driver - in situations time slows down and I see things in slow mo. I am virtually 'out of time' anyway - no concept of time passing by. So if someone skids out of control in front of me on the motorway it goes in slow mo and is easy to avoid.
