For example in Badminton or table tennis?
I struggle to keep scores and remember who's serve it is. I don't know if it's sensory overload from all that's going on but it's a little bit embarrassing. |

| I don't know how many Aspergians have felt like this but in the beginning I was all excited about the relationship, I felt lust, but as time went on it wore off and I began to feel nothing. This has been a pattern of mine for years, I've had a few girlfriends before, and they all complain after the ... |

| Hi, I think I have aspergers, I'm early 30s and just thought I was weird and had anxiety and depression up until last year when my partner (a mental health worker) suggested I have Aspergers. I've since read up on it and I'm 80% sure I have. I've also taken lots of online tests which all seem to ind... |

Nope. I learned at 30, employers snapped me up half way through the last year of my degree and been working software development for 9 months now.
If it's what you want to do go for it. Never too late and you're only 26. |

| So after living alone for a few years I got out there (online :p) and got a girlfriend who became my wife. A few years in now and she suspects I have an ASD. She is a mental health professional and has been saying it for over a year. I thought I was just introverted, a highly sensitive person and so... |

| Hi, I'm new to the forum and thought I'd say hello. I am not sure, but I suspect I have Aspergers / ASD. I'm in my early 30s and until I got married and shared my life with someone I never suspected I was on the spectrum. My brother (15 years younger) is visibly autistic and I felt nothing like him.... |

Often in winter it's too bright for me as well but it's not acceptable to wear shades. More than sun though, I hate office lighting. Fluorescent is worsr but anything where it's brigh... |
