Hi there, I'm Griffles, I'm 21 and I have Dyspraxia, diagnosed at 13, and believe I'm probably somewhere on the spectrum too, though I have no idea where.

I am a huge Doctor Who fan, that would probably be considered my special interest, considering I have a complex list of every episode I own and dont own and I can go on forever talking about it >_> I also enjoy gaming, watching films and writing.

I'm here because I believe my partner has Aspergers, and I'm supporting him with getting a diagnosis. He's going to see a psychologist for an initial assessment in a months time.

I'm also terrible at introductions! >_>

I've never watched dr who, but it seems more aspies choose dr who over the leading brand. I'll have to watch it sometime. I think Netflix has it on instant watch.

I believe it does, personally I prefer the classic series but the newer series is also fantastic too. Not sure if US Netflix has any classics but I'd recommend any Tom Baker to start, failing that, series 5 of the newer is a good starting point too.
