Here's another of those 'i'm here because i think i might be an aspie, but i'm not sure' welcome threads! Sorry! lol

I've been hanging around these forums a while now. I've never suspected that i may have aspergers. Never really knew what it was. I think i might have ADD, for certain. Again, never really knew what that was either until recently. Until i realised late last year that normal people dont struggle as much as i do. Nomal people can get on with their work easily, distractions dont cripple them. Normal people dont forget things on a daily basis. Normal people dont have problems understanding whats written in front of them, or whats being said. I could go on. You know the drill.

So, as you'd expect once i realised ADD is whats more than likely the issue, I went digging deeper. Is this because of ADD? Do i do this because of ADD? Do ADD sufferers experience this, or this? And then one thing i noticed about myself didn't sound like an ADD symptom, but instead an aspie symptom. Then we see the link between the two. Then i did an online test... Which surprisingly came out 'you probably most likely have aspergers'. Oh.

The past few weeks i've been pretty much housebound due to issues i had at work, which lead to resignation. I have a new job, but a zero hours contract one and so far, no work. No money to go anywhere so i've been stuck inside with th o/h 24/7. Which is whats lead me here, just want to talk to people who understand me. Because i'm feeling 'stuck' in this situation where i have to communicate everyday i'm getting increasingly frustrated. I'm getting frustrated now because i know what i want to mean... but i just dont know how to say it. Which is why i'm rambling on. I'm fed up of not understanding what people mean when they say things! Fed up of not being able to say properly what i mean! And it upsets me!

All that build up and i cant even say what i really want to at the end of it :/

I'm really hoping the ADD assessment will also cover this too. I was told by someone it would.

Anyways, hi! lol
