I think it was between a policewoman (which I decided against because I knew too many people who people describe as 'dodgy characters' growing up on my estate), a nurse - so I could help sock people to get better, or a solider - so I could protect our country. Failed the army medical when I was abou...

Thanks. That's another thing for me - although I can't say I don't have any close friends - I have found that I've never been able to maintain those relationships for long. I lose touch with people.

Hi I don't know if I have Aspergers but hoping to work out whether I should pluck up the courage for an assessment or not (just to put things straight in my head and hopefully be able to make sense of my life so far).

I have a daughter who was diagnosed with Aspergers when she was 14. It's been such a big learning journey combined with so many battles. I don't know why but people always comment about how I have such a good insight into how she is. I haven't always understood everything but I have learnt how to un...
