Just thought I should introduce myself.

I'm moopants. I'm in my 30s, a mother and a student.

I don't have a formal medical diagnosis but I have been assessed by a local asd charity who say I have the characteristics of Aspergers, albeit mildly. They suggest I try to get a formal diagnosis but for the past two - three years no one has been willing to consider it.

To be honest, I don't care what they call it, I just need to try and accept that I am a bit different to everyone else, something that for the past 30 odd years I have struggled with. I haven't approached asd communities before but I'm hoping that here I can find somewhere I am accepted and fit in.

The Internet has been fantastic for me as it allows the social interaction i don't really achieve in real life but even then I find I don't really understand why people do what they do and say what they say.

Hi,

Great site isn't it?

I'm 32 and was diagnosed this year.
I've always known and accepted that I'm different.
I don't judge others, and don't care for their judgement.

The internet is a great way for like-minded people to find each other.
