Hi there
I have recently discovered what asperers is and am currently awaiting a diagnosis. I am 34years and have hidden my true self all of my life at a huge cost. I would really like to meet people who have more experience and may be able to help my feeling of being a little lost. Although I am relieved to know I'm more likely aspergers than all of the other things I have been called in the past. I feel lost and like I have to get to know myself again.I have two kids and a hubby and I would love to learn some skills to make living with me a little more managable . Thanks for reading and I'm advance thanks for any replies.

Hi Morphy!
I too am going through a very similar process. I have been on a journey of self-discovery and learning that I have Aspergers, or I guess HFA as it is called now. I am still struggling to come to terms with it because I do feel completely lost. I have changed a lot of my internal dialogue to be less hateful and negative and much more accepting that I am different and that it is okay. That has a been a great experience for the last few months. However, that's not enough anymore it seems. I want so badly to share this with people and to start to rebuild my life as the new me. But, I have no idea how to do that. I have lost touch with most of my old friends, and I have no clue how to meet new ones.
So yeah, I guess I too am looking for some advice.
