Hi all

I got diagnosed with Asperger's last summer and I have finally plucked up the courage to communicate with others. I rarely post on forums (always lurking) so this is new to me!
I left school when I was 12 years old and have pretty much been alone ever since, spending most of my free time indoors, on the computer.
The main reason I've decided to post on here is I feel the need to express myself a little more, and to see how others manage with Asperger's. I currently teach at a college and I really struggle at times.

Welcome to the Forums.

Are you in an area where you could hike?

Hi kraftiekortie

Not really, I live in the city. Hopefully one day, I'll live in the country.

Hi Marky9

Its a stock photo, but I have a collie with similar markings. They are amazing dogs.

Understandable. I'm in New York City

My wife's son lives in Bromley, SE London

Lots of parkland in areas outside of Central London.
