Hi all, where to start, im in the uk, was diagnosed with autism in year 6. I work in a shop near my house and work with children with disabilities as a volunteer. I drum, play chess and i have been doing martial arts forever :) am a black belt in tkd and green belt in ju-jitsu.

Ispose i came on here, to finally talk to other people like me, cos we all worry in the end. No matter how many people say, hey look its quite common. I didnt believe it until i started talking to you great people..

so this is a hellooo and its great to talk :)
