I just realised I havent officially introduced myself here yet.
I am a 31 year old female who lives in the UK and was diagnosed with Aspergers when I was 26.
However I am only just starting to deal with it properly after being in denial for a long time. :oops:
I have already found this site useful and hope you will be gentle with me

Hi SMARTIE and welcome to the wrongplanet. Since you have been a member for awhile I hope you have found the site useful so far. You mentioned being in denial when you learned of your diagnosis. I was actually relieved when I got my diagnosis. For me, I finally realized I wasn't alone in the world and that there were others like me---(social problems, obsessive interests, etc.) Even though Asperger's has some qualities that are less than desirable, I view the condition as a gift. I love my interests and my obsessions for them. Hope you have been enjoying the site.
