Hi, hello, how are you all?

I'm a man in my late twenties, I've been lurking this forum on and off for the last year or so, registered a while ago, figured I'd finally jump in. I've suspected for years that I have Asperger's, but I'm not diagnosed. If I do, then it's probably a very borderline case, almost NT (not sure if that makes it better or worse). I'm still very nervous about letting people know this thing about myself, because, well.... you know how people are. I've told a select few people, and I'm flirting with the idea of telling a few more and being more open about it. Don't know yet.

The main reason I'm posting now is because I'm dealing with a bit of an Asperger's related mini crisis, and I guess I just feel like connecting with others like me in the midst of this stress. so... hello! I look forward to getting to know you folks.

Thanks! My problem is about my (now former) job. I've been unemployed for a long time, got a job that I thought would work out, it didn't. When I made this thread I was still trying to decide if I should stick it out for a while longer, but I quit just a couple hours ago

I'll probably post more details in the jobs forum.

Sorry to hear that, I am sure that was a big let down. Hopefully something else will work out just keep trying and best of luck to you.

^ Disagree. I lurked for 18 months and actually being involved is so much better. Interested in why you regret it.

I think you misunderstood me, I meant I quit my job, not this forum. :p

Either I've been seeing things, or the post I was referring to was removed
