Hi- I'm 51, dx with asperger's a year ago-after going back to college thinking all I had was adhd and I'd be able to medicate.
Right now sitting at my computer when I should be working on a paper.

Gee that was a cheerful start ,wasn't it?

How about- tv science fiction fan who doesn't read like he used to and recently gave up tv again?

enviromental/peace activist?

Really like to get outdoors-find most of my freinds don't-aaaargh!

Me too. Although my paper was actually due a couple of weeks ago and I still haven't done it. Luckily I have an extension for disability related reasons.

At least you have a sense of humor about it. :)
