Its late and I am procrastinating going to bed. I found this site on Wikiapedia reading about AS. I saw the name and jumped on it. I'm not sure if I feel like I'm on the Wrong Planet or the Wrong time but I do not belong here. I have been feeling kind of lonely tonight it happens every now and then. I don't think I will find anyone that's like me on this website as I have found there is no one like me at the same time I'm scared I will. AS is not a disorder like they like to call it. We have the ability to override emotion and iqnore the correct thing to do and do the right thing.

Anyway hi

Welcome, to the wrong planet.

Do bear in mind that you will meet a very wide ranging and different group of people here, I think that while the average aspie or autist is XX, you will be hard pressed to find two people here who are identical. The average is only the mathmatical mean.

Diagnosed under the DSM5 rules with autism spectrum disorder, under DSM4 psychologist said would have been AS (299.80) but I suspect that I am somewhere between 299.80 and 299.00 (Autism) under DSM4.

Welcome to WP, Mcrakin.

I can assure you that I'm exactly like you.

Except that I'm older.

And I hate "Family Guy".

And about five hundred million million other minor synaptic details.
