I think I’m autistic...

I can so relate to so much in this! Especially loving the rainy and cloudy days. Everyone always looks at me funny when I say "It's such a nice day! So relaxing!" when it's a very gloomy day to them haha.

I'm very new to this also and I have that same crying feeling every time I read someone elses story because I think back to my life and think "wow how have I gone this long with this"

It does make me feel kind of upset that I wish I had known all this time, and that it may have been easier if I had known.

But I'm also glad now that I know what it is, but it will take me time to tell someone I know about it. I want to get to the point where I don't break down in front of them while explaining it to them though.

It feels so good to know I’m not alone in my experiences. I hope you are able to tell someone close to you, if that is what would make you feel good. I think it’s okay if you break down in front of someone close to you. They might be able to help comfort you and validate your feelings!
