I was officially diagnosed with high functioning autism on 1-29-24. I am going to start a blog on this site so feel free to read it and comment as I would love to know if others struggle similarly.

I’ve traveled and still I know that there is no such thing as home for anyone, especially the neurodivergent. However, I hope my vacation here on these forums gives me a respite from the world.Hi and Welcome @Lilacleia16
Congratulations on the diagnosis. Welcome to a new world, I hope you enjoy exploring things in this world.
Do read some of the posts in here, and learn from what other folks have discovered about this country called "neurodivergence"

I definitely feel the same way. I’m relieved to be diagnosed. I didn’t suspect I was on the spectrum but my best friend did because I couldn’t read a room.I had a boss many years ago who said, “Wherever you are… be there”
Are you relieved to have finally been diagnosed? Did you suspect you were on the spectrum before, or was it a surprise? Has anyone said they already suspected you have ASD?
I self diagnosed at 35. It was a huge relief and answered decades of questions regarding my own differences/difficulties from day to day.
