Hello all,
first let me introduce myself, my name is Sarah i am 24 years old and i believe i have Asperger's. Ok yes i know it sounds quite funny been 24 and not knowing but my life has been one long struggle and things are only now coming to ahead. When i was younger (infants,junior,senior school) mymother believed there was something wrong with me like ADHD/ADD she wants sure which but no one would believe her which upset her greatly. About 7 months ago i got a half diagnosis by a specialst at my college that i coudl be autistic and yesterday i gave my mum a leaflet about Asperger's and she couldn't believe it as she said that it was me to a T.
Now the problem is i don't know where to go or who to go to to get a proper diagnosis and i was wondering if anyone could help me please. I have always known that i wasn't like all the other kids and they made me feel like a freak and that i was weird. I would like to talk to other like minded people with AS if possible and adults too as i would like to know how you got your diagnosis and if you think there is any hope for me.
Here's Hoping
Regards Sarah
