Thanks smiley, nice to know I'm not the only one

I don't work currently as i take car of the children, but i have a masters in medical science (virology that sort of thing). I don't have the formal diagnosis as it was way too long ago, its a good idea to write things down thanks for the suggestion. I haev now been referred to a have a diagnosis done thank fully.

A very intersting thread. I have a total focus as you said. Recently i had a go on a formula 1 simulator (as used by lewis hamilton), i am not a gamer, i do not own a play station or similar and never use simulators. Cutting a long story short i managed at first attempt 0.5 of a second of hamiltons time on the same simulator. I have an excellent memory and a very good IQ (164 at its peak). Able to work until absolute exhaustion, far longer than people with me. I understand extremely quickly and have good reactions. I used to when i was young have a strange for want of a better word 6th sense / deju vous quite alot.

Posted in the meet and greet, but unsure if correct forum?

Hi all new to the forum, i may a few questions as the aspergers is new to me and i haven't had a diagnosis as of yet (except as below). When i was at school i was diagnosed with aspergers and adhd, it was a very new-ish subject and nothing was taken any further as my parents were just getting divorced, i am now 37 I have had a problem plague my life for as long as i can remember. The symptoms i have are as follows: (some sound a little strange) can't settle, chop and change in my life studying and working. do not like meeting new people at all or going places i don't know. I do not understand people or there inefficiency, so much so it can actually madden me, because it quite litterally does not compute with me. My hand writing is terrible and spelling is passable. I don't like a break from my routine. Absolutely can be as rude as hell or inappropriate (not meaning to be), incredibly honest to the point of rudeness. Has been known for me to fly off the handle at stupid things. Totally impossible to change my mind over things especially if i'm annoyed. When i do get annoyed its like i can't control myself and has been known for me to have a memory loss as well, like there is a fog or storm in my head. I can work to absolute exhaustion and can't under stand why other people get tired. I only sleep a few hours and my mind keeps spinning alot. I obsess over my hobbies, but find them quite reassuring. I can drift off easily and become forgetful, at this point i can talk to people and totally forget what i have said if my focus is elsewhere. I can have panic attacks. I have never been violent with it but it comes across as a terrible demeanor. Does any of this sound familiar? there are probably more things i have forgotten.
