Welcome to the forums, Daniel. The saying probably wont help much but: "it's better late than never". What was your reaction to the diagnosis? Did you ever suspect yourself of having it?

it was mentioned at appointments when i was 17, but no mention of any benifit i could have been on.
 
I suppose they couldn't put you on any benefits until it was formally diagnosed. Have you claimed any benefits now that you have a diagnosis? You would be entitled to claim.
 
Welcome to AC Daniel! I'll have to agree with Calvert, better late than never. It's only been a year since I was diagnosed myself, even though all of my autistic aspects were visible to mostly anyone back when I was little... anyway, feel free to express your feelings and thoughts whenever you feel like it. Enjoy your stay!
