Don’t like myself/ confused!

Hi, not sure where to start but I currently feel really confused about who I am and if I’m a nice person, I’m very caring but I don’t feel like I connect with many people externally, I work and am a mother (which I love), but outside of that I just feel completely misunderstood, my family I feel don’t like me and I understand I’m hard work, I’m only recently diagnosed asd at the age of 39, 18 months ago came out of a 20 year marriage and we have no contact and I just feel everyone else seems to go about life and im always hyperfixing on things or struggling, just feel very misunderstood and now analysing things in my report which have highlighted how much I struggle, I don’t know how I come across anymore, just wondered if anyone fancied a chat (on this thread) or could help me understand my feelings

  • Hello,

    I am sorry you feel that your family regard you as hard work. I have had a similar situation with my own family so cut off contact as it was an abusive relationship. I do wish I had done this many years ago as it is so liberating. We all struggle to fit in so please do not feel it is just you. You are part of a great community here with so many supportive friend's.
