ADHD and Autism groups /websites

sunshine41

Hello, I hope you are all well.

My current therapist feels I may have ADHD and Autism, so I
have just started the process of getting an official diagnosis.

Would anyone know of any good resources or websites online that they would recommend. I am 41 if that helps. I am also in the Berkshire area, so if anyone knows of any face to face groups.

Thank you,

Sunshine

Heya @sunshine I was late diagnosed on my 44th birthday, so I can totally understand the feelings of confusion right now.  I found social media to be a great place to look for information, especially Youtube.  'The Aspie World', 'Orion Kelly That Autistic Guy' and 'I'm autistic, now what?' are a few good channels to start with.
 The National Autistic Society is usually peoples first port of call after diagnosis and there's a lot of resources available on there.

@Albus_Scope Thank you so much for your reply and the resources you mentioned. It really is so daunting, yet kind of a relief as it explains a lot of my symptoms/behaviours. Thanks again 😊

Just take things easy and be gentle with yourself, it can be a lot to take in. But you'll be ok.  
Will you let us know how you get on please?
