I have been lurking for a couple of weeks, because an expert adviced me to have a look at this site.

I am a woman, 59 years, a former evening school teacher. I have been unimployed for years, but have now (by unbelievable luck) been blessed with an interesting job in a small business with very nice people, and I will certainly give it my best shot.
Lately I have had to take a look back into my history to evaluate and understand certain things.
My friends jokingly call me "aspie", so I began reading about it, and I do have many of the traits in a smaller scale.

The tests I have run on the net with shorter and longer intervals come out stable:
AQ: around 36. EQ: around 23. SQ: around 43
Aspie: around 110-12 out of 200, NT: around 98-102 out of 200

Actually I am not surprised, and looking back from that angle makes certain things fall into place.
My aim is to understand my issues from a new angle and learn to tackle them accordingly.
There should be a good chance in here :)
