Just got diagnosed

Like, less than an hour ago. I kinda just started crying then calmed down. I'm in shock. I didnt expect this.

Not that ASD is a bad thing, not at all- i just didn't expect this outcome and its a lot to handle right now. I have the closure I wanted, so I'm happy on that regard. Just.. kinda dumbfounded

Thank you to whoever reads this

Currently being assessed for asd and I dont know how to feel

For context, I am 18F and have been waiting for an assessment since November 2024. I suspected myself of ASD for a year or two prior to that as well.

​

Don't get me wrong I am VERY grateful to finally have an assessment but its such a mix of feelings

​

Is it normal to feel like this? As if you just dont know how to grapple with this. Im not even diagnosed and its on my mind. Im stuck, im nervous- im confused. Its a lot to handle. I'm an adult legally, and I still dont know if I am or not. Does anyone else feel the same way?

​

If someone read all of this, thank you for reading :)
