Hi everyone! My name is Steven and I am a 36/m from the suburbs of Washington, DC. Although I have been diagnosed with characteristics of Asperger's, it has really started to manifest itself these past two years in my job and other social situations that I struggle with. Although I also stutter, I do have a positive attitude: I say I really don't stutter, I am just blessed with the gift of instant replay :D However, it is very hard to explain to others why they think I am so aloof and distant, even rigid at times. I look forward to hearing the stories of other "Aspies" and becoming involved in your community. Respectfully yours, Steven
