I'm just wondering. I'm a 51 year old adult who never got any help when I was actually a child or even young adult. My life was a series of complete tragedies. Out of sheer determination i pulled myself together and have struggled for years and years to make some kind of life. Still I end up encountering traumatic events because of my problems. I can't say if I am autistic (moderately), aspergers, severe ADHD, or whatever else. Have seen a psychiatrist and taken prozac for the last 15 years. It just seems that if you are an adult not only is there a dearth of help available, there just is no desire to help adults. I know it important to catch these things early and that is most effective but even from the societal improvement aspect, untreated adults end up in jails, and committing crimes etc. Also I think developing help for younger person when they become adults can be honed by treating and learning from adults with these problems .
My two cents.
