Hi, thought I'd better finally sign up here!
I'm James, I'm 26 and I live in Essex, England. I first heard about AS when I was 17, when one of the learning support staff at my college suggested I might have it. Hearing about it helped me understand myself so much better. Before I heard about it, I was always asking myself why I was the odd one, and people always assumed I was "just shy". I've never been formally diagnosed, but the more I read about it, the more it made sense. I have taken a few casual tests over the years, and, I know the results aren't to be taken as gospel, but they all said pretty much the same thing. I hope the "Have Asperger's - Undiagnosed" bit of my profile is right?
Anyway! My friend mentioned this forum years ago but I never did sign up. I came across it again today. I feel like I've been missing out on a lot! Nice to meet you all, and sorry about the essay.
