Hello everyone. I used to post on this site occasionally, but I felt that I was doing too much complaining, so I took a break. However, I did get some very helpful advice, and I read some interesting posts.

I think that I am somewhere on the borderline of being autistic. I definitely struggle with social and interpersonal skills. I have always done very well in academic pursuits, and on tests of all kinds. However I struggle to organize my efforts and my thoughts. I was offered a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder by a psychologist, though for various reasons I asked him not to make it official. I probably could be diagnosed with ADHD as well, though I am very determined, so I've managed to do okay at school and work. My main struggle is difficulty connecting to others. I seem to be, well, on another planet!

Anyways, I would like to participate in this forum and contribute to the conversation.
