Hi, I found the link to this site on another forum, and decided to join you. I'm the mother of 2 children, the youngest of whom has severe autism, and the elder, technically NT (although she has sensory issues and a few tiny things that no one else would notice). I myself am high-functioning autistic; I was not diagnosed until after my son was. I'm still struggling with it. Part of me is almost giddy with relief to finally know what's 'wrong' with me, but I'm also dealing with a lot of negative feelings, guilt, shame, fear, and other warm fuzzies. 
I'm glad to find a place where I might be able to chat with people who can understand what it's like to be me!
