Hello everyone,

Last month I was diagnosed with Asperger's at the age of 23. The news came as a relief because I always knew there was something... When my neuropsychologist looked at the Wechsler test I took in school when I was nine years old (that thankfully my mother had saved all of these years) he was surprised I wasn't diagnosed sooner... Go figure. I'm trying to work through some of the anxiety issues that come along with this, but otherwise I'm not bitter about it.

Anyway, it's nice to know that there are others like me. My special interests are just about anything relating to the first half of the twentieth century, writing, and playing music (piano, guitar, violin).

I don't know any other aspies, so I figured this would be a nice place to start.

Cheers.

Thanks everyone! I see two Oregonians. I was born in Portland myself. Wish I still lived there.
