My name is Alex (my real name) and I came to this forum from Google. When I learned that there was a forum for people with Aspergers Syndrome I was shocked and appalled. I'm glad people are sharing the same condition I have. I've been diagnosed with Aspergers when I was about 5 years old, and I didn't understand it at the time.

Now since I've been doing research on Aspergers, the more I learned about myself. I think I possess a medium level of Aspergers, since I understand peoples emotions on their faces. All in all I'm glad I found this forum it will help me connect with others who have the same thing I have.

Usually, when you are appalled, its a bad thing.

If you read it, it said I was diagnosed when I was 5.

Yeah, that was a wrong choice of word. Amazed would be more appropriate.

Aha. So that might still leave a clear two year chance of you being the youngest member on WP.
Are you six or seven years old now? Or maybe still five?

Seriously, welcome to WP.

There is a great deal of shuffling back and forth, here, with biological age versus mental age. I myself can act like a petulant three year old, when I feel like it. :evil:

Welcome to Wrong Planet.
Good thing you explained the appalled thing as I didn't understand how it fit into your intro.
