Hi. I'm new here, so I don't know anybody...and wow, this feels like high school. XD

Anyway, I'm a bit new to the whole "Aspie" thing...I mean, my aunt, who's a psychologist, has been telling me for years that I have it, but it only recently did I get up the courage to admit it to myself...thus resulted in small breakdown and then web searching to find someone else to talk to about it since I didn't know anyone else with it to talk about it.

So, I found this place...looks pretty nice, so uh...hi all.

You're all crazy..............look at me I'm fine!! !! !! !! !! !!

Well, I'm UK self diagosed aspi - I read abt it ten years ago in the Guardian newspaper - I'm quite brainy u know!

I even have difficulty being outside in my garden. Too many years of being alone - even tho married.

I prefer big open spaces / landscape miles from anyone.

2k books here, non-fiction / technical.

Self employed for 25 years as I cannot work among others.

I also prefer big open spaces/ landscapes miles from anyone, my dream once my boys grow up is to move and allow for my real differences and find my real identity... people at times scare me also :wink:
