I want to thank everyone on here for helping me. I may not have made many posts, but the few I did have gotten me finally diagnosed.
It’s validating to know that it’s not that I’m not trying to make friends, I’m not just antisocial. I spent a lot of time tortured by my mothers words, (although she doesn’t know it) her questioning why I don’t hang out with my friends spontaneously on the weekend and why talking over the phone is so difficult and why a loud room of people is triggering but a loud concert is fine.
Of course it’s not an excuse, but now that I have a better look at my brain and how I work I can formulate a better plan to work at my social skills and improve.
Thanks to all for supporting me and helping me find the tools to get where I am today. I’m happy to finally be able to change my status.
