What it seems like half the members who post here are senior citizens? I think that once you work through your issues being an aspie doesn't necessarily impact your lifespan. But like we can't ignore the fact that people can be mentally ill also sorry for bumping 10 month old thread. You make good point on age and adjusted to being a aspie , , google citation did mention that many die accidentally at earlier age . ( possibly wonder if distractions and preoccupations , might take one out of their immediate circumstances allowing for something completely out of the norm being , what causes their demise. )
No so sure that. All older or middle aged Aspies are used to tending their health , unless there is a caregiver in the situation . Am glad to have found group of older ASD persons on this site . If nothing else , it lends a feeling of hope
For asd. Peeps to get older. My previous offsite acquaintances and research , did not reveal to me , any group of older Aspies .Prior to coming here.
