The more I read on this board, the more I'm like....

I do that too
And that.....

I've suspected for a while I might have asd. It impacts many areas of my life but mostly my marriage. The rest I kind of muddle along with. Work is ok because I'm self employed and can take time off if I need to have some reset and I can also pick and choose the work I take on. I have several friends that don't mind my inconsistency and they say my outlook on the world is refreshing. So I guess I'm ok with my friendships. Parenting is tough.

We are soon to have an asd diagnosis for my eldest. He is A LOT like me.

I'm starting to realise that i have sensory issues. Noise is a particular issue. And little things like not tolerating the feel of my bath mat. The bath mat makes my teeth itch.

I dont even know the point of my post. I'm just musing I guess. I also don't know what to do with the information I'm learning

Maybe my interpret of the word label doesn't match others.

I don't believe my son has symptoms or needs treatment. Im deviating from my own difficulties now. Sorry

I don't have symptom or need treatment but you still get diagnosed with the neurotype.
