Eleinay Report post Posted July 18, 2015 Hello! I am a self diagnosed Asperger. I simply didn't know about Asperger so I grew up struggling a bit (well, not just "a bit" :-) ). About two years ago I found some online tests and docs which helped me a lot to understand what I had... And it has been quite a relief. Happy to be here and to meet you all. Thank you!

georgiapiano Report post Posted July 18, 2015 Hi there. I'm in a very similar situation to you. I could write a book about my experiences since a child. I'm 34 and have not yet been diagnosed. It's only been recently that I realised that my ways may lead to Asd. I've read books and done online tests like yourself and have resulted in ASD. It's tough isn't it. I find the hardest thing is relating with my family. They don't quite understand. Nice to meet you x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would it change something? Would I feel better after a diagnosis? What do you think about it? No one knows that I am an aspie... By now. I think, you know, that simply the majority of the people think that I am strange, antisocial or something like that. For me, the most important thing has been to be able to realize why I behave like that when I was a child, why I struggled so much, why I suffered so much, why everything I did was so strange at the eyes of the others.

trekster Report post Posted July 20, 2015 Welcome to the forum. I knew I was aspire about 2 years before I was diagnosed but as a teenager was too scared to do anything about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eleinay Report post Posted July 20, 2015 Hello trekster, thank you for telling me about you. I was too scary too, until few years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
