Why are you here? Because apparently my parents think I might have some form of Autism/Asperger Syndrome and I need to know more.
When were you diagnosed?: Today was my first meeting, so I'm still finding out if I do have it or if my parents are seeing things.
Favorite subjects: I loved chemistry but sucked at the calculating part, at the moment all my literary courses at university.

Family: I live with my mother and my father, have disowned my maternal grandfather and am convinced that my paternal grandfather is losing the grasp on his own mind. I also have a younger sister, but she's moving out soon.

How did you find this website? Googled until I could google no more.

Plans for the future? short term to get my Bachelor's and Master's degree in British literature (I'm hoping to specialise in postmodernism), then get my teacher's degree and teach at a secondary school. Which worries my parents because of my odd social skills.
Any comments? Meh, not really. |

That's what everybody says. I couldn't tell you for sure, as we don't actually put the ingredients in. It's popular theory. |

First Name: If it were less identifiable, I would post it.
Age: 27
Location: Newport News, VA, USA (for now, hoping to move back west in a year or so)
Hobbies and Interests: Reading, Writing, Traveling, Psychology, Philosophy, Yoga/Meditation, Religion, Science Fiction, Cartoons, Life Extension, Adopting pets, Growing Succulents & Cacti
Why are you here? Never found a forum with so many people like me.
When were you diagnosed? I was never diagnosed. As a child teachers/babysitters thought that there was something 'wrong' with me. Parents took me to psychologists and they only thought that I was a walking encyclopedia with a somewhat 'difficult' personality. Maybe a combination of growing up in the 80's and being female made me fly under the radar in spite of having profound social difficulties.
Favorite subjects: Literature, Philosophy, and Genetics
Year/Grade: Left college three years ago.
Favorite music: Ambient, New Age, Reggae, Smooth Jazz, Dance, and Some Rock
Books: (by) Kurt Vonnegut, Stephen King, Clive Barker, Philippa Gregory, Ray Bradbury, Roger Zelazny, and several more.
TV shows/Movies: South Park, Futurama, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Simpsons, Battlestar Galactica, 24, Star Trek Voyager, Star Trek DS9, Seaquest DSV, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis
Instrument: Piano
Do you like sports? Never really got into it. My hand-eye coordination used to suck before I took up yoga--now it's adequate and I can actually stand on one foot for more than a microsecond.
Family: We had our issues, but now get along very well. Not at all close to extended family though.
Clothing: Whatever is comfortable
How did you find this website? A google search for born on wrong planet without the quotes.
Job: Freelance Editor
Plans for the future? Write a novel, move to New Zealand, adopt a few animals, travel more, and maybe even have a child or two just like me.
Any comments? Looking forward to meeting others of my species. |
