Yeah.

Well, those ones that are diagnosed later in life, I have a book called Different, Not Less, where 18 people diagnosed later in life tell about their experiences.

These all had jobs, all different kinds of jobs.

Helped with relationships.

That's where the diagnosis really, really made a difference.

Their relationships became a whole lot easier.

And that's something that's really important.

Well, that's right.

And another problem is I had horrible issues with anxiety, which I discussed in my earlier book, Thinking in Pictures.

And I've been on antidepressant medication for 40 years.

And all the stress-related health issues, I had colitis and stuff cleared up.

And I would recommend if you have a lot of anxiety to read the chapter and hear about the medication because I don't think I'd even be alive today.

if I hadn't gone on the right medication.

Now, way too many drugs are giving out to little kids.

It's disgusting.

But a little bit of the right thing can sometimes really make a difference because my problem with the constant anxiety was biological.

And my fear system was just turned on for no reason.

Biological.

Well, getting them into decent jobs.

Because I worked 25 years in heavy construction.
