Hello Ann
Thank you for your reply, it's so nice to be able to talk to others. I've always known that I was different and it's actually quite a relief to have been diagnosed and have a 'label'. I know the 'label' can be difficult for some people (or so I've heard) but for me I finally feel as though everything makes sense at long last. I tend not to go out much (also have social phobia) because everything seems so scary. I've tried a couple of short courses recently and that went well at first but I've bottled out of the last few because one girl had a very domineering nature and it frightened me. It wasn't her fault but I couldn't cope. She ignored me when I sat down and turned her back on me and I wanted to cry. I didn't cry though but I couldn't talk after that, I completely clammed up. I'm not sure if I was imagining it; I'm sure I wasn't though and I felt extremely hurt and I haven't been brave enough to return. I hope to go back in the New Year though and my psychotherapist has been great about it; he helps a lot.
I know on my last post to Kat667 I said that I didn't want meds to interfere with my work either, but I actually don't work. I meant that I didn't want the meds to interfere with my work with the psychotherapist. I thought I must just clear that up. So there's my first mistake and I've only just joined!

I worry about everything and I have been worrying about that too.
Anyway, hope to hear from you again soon and best wishes to you too for Christmas and the New Year. I hope you get through it okay. Kind Regards
