Wobbit here... dunno much of what to say as an introduction to myself, really, which is a feeling I'm sure everyone here could sympathize with, if everyone here could sympathize (joke).
More seriously, I'm 22, and my little brother was diagnosed autistic (changed to AS) about a year ago, the first I'd heard of AS except in passing. Upon doing my own research via the handy dandy interwebs, the walls kind of came crashing in when I found something that completely described my unusual childhood, and many of my current problems, in a neat little package. I've spent my time since then coming to grips with the fact that some aspects of my life *need* to change. For survival and also for fully realizing my potential.
That said, I wouldn't trade it away for the world (or, more appropriately, for NTism). I've been lurking for about a week now before registering, and I must say I'm darn well pleased to meet y'all. Hopefully I'll finally fit in somewhere.
