Oh God, yes. My family were the first people that really made no sense to me. They seem to incite so much drama in their own lives that spills into mine. My youngest sister even told me I was her conscience. I guess that's a good job for someone with Autism since I am very rules driven but it made me throughout my life a nervous wreck.

I did a dna test with Ancestry, I love genealogy, and I have proven they are my family. That and I'm the spitting image of my dad's side of the family sigh. I so wish I was adopted though because then maybe I could find where I belong. It's hard enough being a freak in the world, but being one in your family is even harder.

When I was in my early teens I sometimes wished I was adopted because that would mean I wasn't really related to my annoying older brother. :twisted:

It’d be damn hard to believe I was adopted. However, the same traits which seemed more than acceptable, and even strong points, in earlier generations, are now undoubtedly symptoms of mental illness when I show them.

I've always felt that I was adopted for various reasons throughout my life. I mainly felt adopted because my accent was different from that of everyone else. Apparently, both my my mum and dad have a British accent and my sister probably does as well. I, on the other hand have a nice German accent that helps me to pass as Male.
