Just got out of my diagnostic interview about 15 minutes ago. I am officially autistic.
Still processing everything and what that actually means for me, but it’s official.

That’s a huge revelation! If you’re like me, it’s going to be an odd roller coaster of acceptance, joy, insight, confusion, and changes in your social network. I recommend looking up videos on YT for individuals that recently found out they were autistic. Also, become active in an autistic community so you have others to help you navigate the new world you will find yourself in. Feel free to post as many questions as come up on this community! That’s what we’re here for.
