Well, I was going to post on the General Discussions or Side Condition boards but I have to follow typical forum etiquette and introduce myself. Hello, my name is Rebecca, I was born with two autistic siblings, and an autistic father. I developed normally, blah blah blah, but I have Tourettes Syndrome, and asd behaviors. I am not diagnosed.

Hi Rebecca - welcome!

I was going to ask you for lots of detail about your asd behaviours and your family life ... but good community etiquette would be to let you say as much or as little as you like, when you want to!

eta ... to actually answer your question ... I'm still pretty new. Have not found my way around all parts of WP yet.

I was going to make a separate post on it, but thanks for your interest! Also, welcome to the forums too! We can tag team the big bad (friendly) autism community together ;D. Have you been here long enough to know where to post my 'Should I consult a professional' drabble?
