Did anyone get diagnosed with autism or aspergers later in life? Adult only!

I'm seriously considering this may actually be whats going on with me... I tick so many boxes and everytime I do those non clinical rests I seems to come in pretty high up the scale at least mid to high.

Not diagnosed, no. Like you I reckon I tick quite a few of the boxes.

I decided it wasn’t going to make much difference to my life getting it checked out. I’ve learnt to survive.

@ButterRobot I will start reading up on it because it really could make a difference in my life.

@Mellowgirl Just don't let it define you...its not a box.

And use it to your advantage.

I just can't figure it out.
