Hi all,

i'm from perth, i haven't been diagnoised but i definitely have all the traits of an aspie, i've learnt heaps reading thru these forums and i'm very grateful for all the info that has been posted.

about myself

divorced, father of 3 awesome kids, one has xyy ( some autistic traits, trouble with verbal skills, overdeveloped spacially) but still within the "normal" bell curve. Just trying to learn how to enjoy the moment and get out of my head.

current task from my psych is to be more social, and put myself out there, we'll see how that goes :lol:

Hi all, thought this was a good place to start my new journey...

Just found out I'm an Aspie about a month ago - certainly explains many things...
I'm 32 from the Gold Coast.

Salutations.

I'm 18 and from the Gold Coast, and have suspected myself to be 'different' for quite some time. It wasn't until recent years that I decided to find out why. I've done extensive reading and quizzes, and have settled on Asperger's, with possible overlaps on Schizoid Personality Disorder. I haven't sought diagnosis from a psychologist as I don't feel that disabled. So nothing is official, but who knows you better than yourself?

Anyway, hello to all the fellow Australians on this forum. This is quite a useful and entertaining resource.

Hey everybody,
As my personal info and nick suggest I am a noob and so far undiagnosed. I have wondered about AS for several years in the back of my mind and after several catalysts more recently I have decided to eventually get tested. My comicbook shop guy, who I pinned for being likely AS the first time I met him, dropped a clue as to possibly being just that and I get along well with people like him. So I hope to enjoy chatting with you guys and maybe learning some stuff I didn't already know and sharing my personal experience and journey towards finding out for sure if I'm on the spectrum.
I've never blogged before but I think it might be high time I gave it a go. I have so little meaningful conversation with the people around me it might feel good to vent some stuff now and then, lol.
P.S I'm near Sydney.
Cheers, Dan.
