Other Autism and ptsd

[Deleted member 31998]

I am simply seeking resources. I can't find an online community for adults; in short, I was diagnosed at six years old but my mother did not tell me. She believed it was fake and I would outgrow the symptoms, regardless of the test being done by (most likely) an allistic psychiatrist.

I dug up my file and found out recently. I can't get ahold of the Autism Society in town(they may not be around anymore) and all the support groups in person and online are based around parents of people with autism. Any links?

Hi! I'm a probable Aspie, getting a formal assessment soon. One board I frequent for Aspie/Autism info is aspiescentral.com

Lots of good support and info there. I've been able to put a lot of puzzle pieces in place thanks to them.

Thank you for this! It has already been useful as a way to reach out. It's really good for people who have no real life supports :)
