Hello I am new here
I don't know what to write here but I am 30 and I was just recently diagnosis with Austim after being misdiagnosis all my life with ADHD and bipolar. And right now I am still struggling to cope with all these changes. If anyone has an input please help me out.
I am alone and don't have many if any friends and my social skills are subpar at best.
I am into computers and have a degree from college in management information systems but Have had luck getting a job with my degree.

Hi, I don't have any earthshaking input for you, but I just wanted to welcome you. I as diagnosed as an adult too and it was a lot to take in at the time. After my dx, I read lots of books about Asperger's and I guess that helped some because I realized I was far from alone in what I was experiencing. Guess it was the old "misery loves company" thing. But if you stick around here for a while, I think you'll find some good input and good company.

I think over the next few months if you take the time to explore and process this monumental change with patience it will filter down into something of a relief and potent actuality, the change is necessary and I hope it is a very liberating progression for you.
