My story is long but for years I knew something was wrong with me. In fact I often denied it. I was always very good faking certain faces on how I felt and whenever I made a mistake in the social arena made it seem I was playing.
More often than not it was trial and error and I have made a lot of errors.
I'm getting older now when I turned 28 I noticed my face was always tired. When I engage in a conversation I knowingly change my facial expressions and sometimes those expressions stick without me noticing or perhaps the wrong expression is showing.
This thanksgiving it was hinting my wife was done with me. Her use for me was over. She was tired of struggling and more importantly tired of me. To be fair she expected a provider something I never have been but I look it.
For example my current job it took my fellow co workers a month or two to understand they were not on the show undercover boss because they were so sure I was the boss because I dress well and talk well due to my years of doing call centers.
Christmas Eve she told me she wished to get divorced.
I was at work browsing the Internet and I saw this site.
I Have Asperger's and I Read Your Comments Too - Empathize This
It made me read more into autism and Aspergers in general. My youngest son was diagnosed after I pushed him to be tested after my wife was in denial.
Once I saw that I focused on finding a psychologist which eventually led to a clinical psychologist and I got diagnosed.
I am trying to find ways to turn this diagnosis in a way to better myself and get the help I need but it's still been hard.
I don't know if it's just me but I always felt I had bad luck and couldn't understand misfortune after misfortune that has happened to me and I am interested in knowing if the people who got diagnosed by themselves did it take a situation to get them diagnosed?
