Newly diagnosed and doubting everything.
I was recently diagnosed within the past week.
I'm now doubting everything. I have always suspected I was autistic but now I'm doubting just. I also am doubting everything about myself.
Is my whole personality just autism? Is everything I do and the things I like because of autism?
At first I was very confident and ok with the diagnosis. Then I felt very depressed for about 24 hours now I just feel confused.
Another thing is special interests. I do have some hobbies but I'm not sure I would consider them special interests. However I feel like I hold back on them. I don't let myself buy stuff I want. I don't talk about stuff because I'm afraid people will think I'm weird. My hobbies are more reading books than collection.
