Yes, I can spend hours on here reading threads and occasionally answering them. Using time that I should be doing other things in. I can imagine a lot of WP users having a (maybe temporary) obsession with learning everything they can about AS after being diagnosed, and of course this forum is a prime place for learning. At least, I hope that I am not the only one.....

You're not the only one. This site also keeps me from doing things I should be doing.

I am also proud to be addicted to my on line aspie family, at in the aspie world I am understood, I was only diagnosed last year, since have written articles, set up a web site - so guess it has taken over a little, but after spensing a life time not really knowing or understanding the real me, I am enjoying learning and being just that - and cyberspace is better than pills

I'm NT (my two sons are AS), but I'm addicted as well, I must check this site at least five times a day. It helps me to avoid housecleaning.

Yes.

It helps kill the time at the lab. When I have blots washing or applying for an hour and nothing to do in between... yep.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery. Of course, this is about my 15th post of the night and I have Physics homework that I should be doing...
