I was diagnosed a few months back. Really opened my eyes. Just wanted to say hi to everyone here and make some friends hopefully. What do you guys do for fun? Tell me about your special interests, etc.

Hi! I'm pretty new, too, and still waiting a diagnosis confirmation, but for special interests I have a hobby farm that I'm trying to turn into something profitable since I left my full time job last year. Horses have been a passion of mine since I was little; I own two now but they're just old pets anymore. I guess just animals in general, really. I loved whales and dolphins as a kid, and I went through a weird komodo dragon phase in elementary school. Now I enjoy training my dog and working with the draft horses at my part time job. Anyway, welcome!

A hobby farm sounds great, I would love to do that (in a very small way). Do you have chickens?

Yep, chickens, horses, turkeys right now that we're going to eat for Thanksgiving! Ducks and dogs, too. I'm hoping to not need a "regular" job eventually 8)
