Hey! I've been reading the ASD literature for a few months now. Finally decided to "come out" as having a differently wired brain than most. From what I can tell, only experts in the field have a reliable track record for diagnosing ASDs, and unfortunately there are none within a 100 mile radius from me. I'm definitely high functioning, though I also suffer from emotional and social 'life-disturbances'. Having this perspective feels like a major step towards taking life into my own hands, and I am interested to see how this will influence me in the long run.

So far, I've really enjoyed the things I've read on here! You guys are great. Cool community.
