Hello,

I'm a 29 year old with Asperger's Syndrome - I've known about it since age 11. I tend to work with it pretty well these days (school days, not so much), but it does cause complications here and there.

I'm lucky enough to have some very understanding family and friends but I don't get much opportunity to share things with people like me, so I thought I'd give this forum a go.

Hi, I'm new to WP and social media in general. Glad to hear your positive thoughts about friends and family. My friends and family are just getting used to the diagnosis, as am I. If I had a £/$ for everyone who has said "hmmm ...... we always thought there was something going on, but we thought you were just odd" I would have enough to buy a house in London. I'm hoping this is a place to exchange thoughts and feelings with others too.
