Hi there. I just discovered Wrong Planet tonight. I am so excited! I am a 60-year-old woman who was diagnosed just a few years ago. Holy cow, does this explain a lot! My whole life, in fact. My diagnosis was accidental: I was undergoing neuro-psych testing for brain damage that may have resulted from a catastrophic trauma sustained in a horseback-riding accident. :salut: I would benefit, I think, from having a pen pal or two. I am pretty isolated. No big surprise there! I look forward to communicating with other individuals with Asperger's Syndrome.

welcome to this thing of ours.
i got kicked by a horse once, luckily it was with its front legs, which still knocked me flat. its owner proceeded to punish it by breaking a 2x4 across it's tuckas.

Thanks for the speedy welcome! Please call me Elle.

And that treatment of that horse? That was abuse. Sorry, check out my profile. You'll get my reaction!

I expect that most sufferers of AS are sociable online.
