I do not qualify or tag myself as being "eccentric", I think I am quite normal.

I LOVE being alone but always end up yearning it. I hate social gatherings, I hate chit-chat, I hate people telling me their problems and I hate people showing off. I have a family, it is hard being alone but I wouldn't spend time away from my kid for too long either. I'm on the phone and email all ... |

I got diagnosed a few weeks ago at 36 y.o.
So it's never too late.....
