Hi people.
I'm guessing my story will sound pretty familiar.
I haven't been diagnosed but I'm pretty certain I have Aspergers.
I'm 44 and I've been struggling my whole life with things, being the "weirdo" in any given situation, not really understanding people etc.
I only recently heard about Aspergers but the more I read about it the more it describes my whole life.
And since I found Wrong Planet, and have been able to read you guys describing real life situations which puts some context to the cold factual information elsewhere, I feel so relieved.
I thought I was the only one.
But it now doesn't seem so bad that I try and sneak out of work unnoticed because I can't figure out whether I'm supposed to say goodbye to anyone or not.
Or that if someone isn't smiling I avoid them because they are obviously in a bad mood.
Or that I feel nervous even visiting my own Mother because I don't know if she's happy to see me.
I'm glad you guys are here.
