New guy checking in. Very recently diagnosed and just found this forum today. Neurotypical people sure are weird.

Can someone tell me if my avatar is visible? It shows in my profile but I don't see it in my posts.

I agree! Though, my bride who is neither Neurotypical nor Autistic (she's ADHD) is not as bad as the Neurotypical but still manages to be a bit odd.

By the way welcome to WP! I hope you like it here.

Hello new guy! Pleased to meet you and welcome to our world! Yeah NT's can be on the odd side but then again, we're not averse to some weirdness ourselves!

welcome, recent diagnosis is a lot to sort and the longer we have lived before the more there is to sort. You are among others who understand! ( diagnosed at age 68, six years ago)
