Hello,

I have been lurking around the forums for about 5 months and finally got around to posting. I would like to say that reading about other members and their experiences have made me alot more comfortable in knowing I'm not the only one who sees the world the way I do. I am 33 and was diagnosed with Asperger's back in February. Until January I had never been to a Dr. for any type of psychological issue. My grandfather passed away and stress at work had taken its toll on me in January so I went in to see my Dr. By chance her regular staff psychologist was out that day and a PhD student was filling in. This student happens to be doing research on Autisim dissorders. Long story short after talking with her for the better part of 2 hours and her meeting my mother the following week and some discussions with several of her peers it was determined I am an Aspie.

Thanks everyone.

It will take me a while to warm up and post a bit more. I am looking forward to sharing some of life experiences with everyone.
