How did I come to Diagnosed as Autistic ? I mean I did not happen to pop into into my shopping basket one day as a 2 for 1 off or find in in the bargain bin with a CD of a long singer long past their Christmas prime.It was a gradual lighbulb moment like a cartoon symbol appearing over your head and it helped in my previous existence I was a special needs teaching assistant working hosting with Autistic children who had an infinity with me.
I was tripping to the doctors with various things thinking something in me didn't quite fit and at one stage a Doctor did ask if I heard voices and it was at this stage I felt like turning round looking over my should and say
"We don't hear voices do we now people "
I was the free range child the one running about and climbing trees and jumping out of windows , I have to add these were ground floor windows.
I think I was very much the child who was like Wednesday Adams from the Adams family except I had bobbed hair fashioned by the hairdressers from hell.And I never really like my hair as it went in only 3 styles but in time I have learnt to like it for it is part of me and I won’t be bent to the whim of anyone
I was sort of repellent to friends unless they were boys and I got on so much better with them .
I struggled with school work though despite being capable in thought , it was the committing those ideas to paper that was the chore .
