Therapy today: I told T I know we need to do a consult with another T and some testing...but I asked her to tell me the absolute truth- even if it was something I didn't want to hear. She said she would.

I asked her if she now thinks I'm on the autism spectrum. She said yes. She explained why she thinks that but I kind of faded out.

I'm 60 years old. I've seen umpteen therapists. This is the first time anyone has told me something like that. I don't know how to feel..relief to finally have a working explaination, I guess. And sad. And have a new understanding of why things happened the way they did.

I know I need to consult with a specialist in this area to know for sure..and there's testing to be done.

My daughter has ADHD and my grandson has ADHD and is high functioning autistic. I guess it makes sense.
