Hello everyone,
Hi I’m Kate and I’m new here and hoping to get some pointers and advice as I learn more. I hope I won’t offend anyone with insensitive language or asking ‘silly’ questions
Early 50s, my husband (same age) has very recently been diagnosed. I believe I’m NT.
His diagnosis explains a lot of difficult experiences he’s had through life, which he seems to find helpful. This is great because he’s been hung up on some of those incidents replaying them in his mind and repeatedly telling the sad stories of how he was bullied and victimised. It seems to have given him a bit of permission to forgive himself and I’m hoping develop a kinder relationship with himself.
He has also said now he has a diagnosis he will be able to make some changes to avoid some of the more difficult and confrontational experiences he’s been having, especially recently. I’d like to ask those of you who have been late diagnosed whether this resonates with your experiences? Do you think you have made significant changes with new successful coping strategies or has it been more about acceptance and embracing more your ND talents?
Thank you all!
