I've been seeing this guy for the last year and a half. During this time, we've had some amazing times and some really hard times. We have had some really big set backs. He has these female friends that he keeps in touch with and who won't move on with their own lives. Each of these women, he has had an intimate relationship with (at times overlapping) and it is one of those things where ...

Hello. I am new to the forum and I am looking for some advice. I am 23 and people think I am autistic. My GP has referred me to a specialist who I am seeing on Friday. I don’t know what to expect. I am nervous. What will they do to me?

I'm 1.73m and 54kg. I don't think I'm fat at all. But everytime I'm sad or nervous or anxious I throw up. I lose appettite, can't eat anything and if I do, I throw up.
