I was diagnosed with PDD-NOS last year due to late onset language development (or rather, with atypical autism, but that is the same as PDD-NOS, right?). My country uses ICD, where PDD-NOS is still a thing. I haven't been able to find much info on PDD-NOS, but apparently it's many things. Most often...

That is the list that made me aware that Aspergers and autism is more than just 'trainspotting'. It led me to research Aspergers very in-depth, taking tests and whatnot, and eventually I got my diagnosis from a psychiatrist. From my research it's a pretty good list. Not too long, and while some of t...

I've never really played with barbie, or dolls at all. I did have some though, but I was mostly just deeply annoyed that she couldn't sit on the barbie horses because of her legs. I did spend one 8-hour trip by car bandaging barbie, pulling the bandages off then putting them on again. For eight hour...

I read a really great explanation of these 'easy' questions a while ago, from reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/aspergers/comments/36gqju/what_how_are_you_means_explained/ This is the human equivalent of the initial pings between two modems: "Hi, how are you? [Hi, I am a human being and I acknow...

I can read basic body language - like, I can see if somebody is annoyed or angry, happy or bored, but I can't differentiate between related feelings. I can read if it's a strong or weak emotion (angry vs. just annoyed) and if it's a positive or negative emotion. The problem is just that I very rarel...

I played with lego alll the time when I was a child. I have recently started again. Not so much collecting, as just buy and build the sets that interest me. Mostly technics and, lately, Star Wars. I want to build the big Ultimate Collectors Millenium Falcon. It can't be bought anymore, but it's quit...

33F here. I was diagnosed last year, with PDD. I don't have meltdowns, and the sensory stuff is more or less manageable, so that has definitely 'helped' me stay hidden. I have never been 'blamed and shamed', nor have I really heard about that happening in Denmark (not that I know much of autism in D...

I've only ever been single, so I can't really compare, but I'm very happy to be so. I've never felt any urge to find a boyfriend (I'm pretty sure I'm aromantic) and I strongly feel that it'd take too much energy out of me if I had one. I struggle to get through the days as it is. It was a relief to ...
