I've just registered and wanted to say hi.

I don't know if I have Aspergers. I know I'm different - I love spending time on my own (I seem to need it more than most people I know), social situations leave me exhausted, I often don't know what to say when I'm around people and most people seem so alien to me... like their social rituals don't make any sense. That said, there are people and social situations I'm more comfortable with, and they're very important to me. I couldn't be happy being on my own all the time. My lone time is often a rehearsal ground for those social situations... it's where I integrate, organize my thoughts, prepare, plan...

I've taken online quizzes to establish my Aspie score and the results have been inconclusive. I believe my Aspie score has decreased over the last few years.

I'm glad to be a part of this community and look forward to contributing to it. I'm going to be away for a couple of weeks, but expect to become more active when I'm back.
