Hi, I just joined this site today.

I am on the Autistic spectrum with high IQ, poor executive function, good empathy.

I love drawing, language, science, animals and nature in general. I enjoy dancing, yoga, swimming and walking but I haven't done much recently because I am in recovery from M.E. and it has been a difficult year and a half. Things are getting better now though :)

I didn't know that I was autistic until March.

I live in the UK. I am 29. I hope I can meet friends on here because moving around, being off sick for 7 years and being autistic means that I have ended up without many people to talk to or hang out with.

Rebecca :)

Nobody cares, no-one else is interested that I just discovered that there are such things as imaginary numbers, and no-one else gets that 39 is cool because it is 3 x 13 AND because it contains a 3 and a 9! :P
