What is your first name? I'll say pixie for now.
Age: 31
Location: Midwest
Hobbies and Interests: Shopping, watching TV, writing, road trips, gymnastics, exercise
Why are you here? I believe that everyone in my immediate family (myself included) has some AS traits. Reading this forum has given me a different way of looking at everything that's happened in my life. I think I may be the most NT of the four of us, but I've just begun to figure everything out.
When were you diagnosed? I haven't been. I kind of feel like I have AS but I always score as "neurotypical" on the quizzes. I am not sure if I actually have AS or have just picked up learned behaviors from my family.
Favorite subjects: History, Psychology, anything to do with writing
Year/Grade: No longer in school
Favorite music: Anything! I love music and enjoy anything from rap to classical.
Books: self-help books, Jodi Picoult books
TV shows/Movies: Seinfeld, Friends, Survivor, Switched at Birth
Instrument: Piano
Do you like sports?: Absolutely! I am not great at sports but I really love playing them and watching them.
Family: Mom, dad, younger brother. We have two cats- one that I raised since he was a kitten and the other who we recently adopted as a stray. The cat that I raised is very neurotic, skittish, fastidious, and content to be alone at times. The one we adopted is friendly and can't stand to be away from us. Now I wonder if we have one AS cat, and one NT cat. :D
Clothing: I actually love comfortable clothes which still look polished- the best of both worlds.
How did you find this website?: I googled "neurotypical child of Asperger's parents." And this website has changed my life because I now understand how my parents see the world. I'm not kidding.
Job: Writer
Plans for the future? Honestly, to enjoy and embrace life- and learn from every situation I encounter and every person I meet. Gosh, I am so cheesy. Oh well. :)
