Hi all, another Australian Aspie here (diagnosed today, suspected for about a year). I live just a bit south of Melbourne.

Hi all.
Sydney here!
22 yo and diagnosed with Aspergers last year.
I'm looking for services that could provide social skills training, making friends...does anyone know a professional that provides this? That's at least not costly?


Hi! I go to an adult social group in Sydney run by Aspect. It's not a 'service' as such, but does provide the opportunity to practice social skills and make friends if that's something you want to do there. I mainly go for solidarity :) .

Been a while since I've been back here, other than yesterdays post.

Feeling very isolated here in Batemans Bay, after moving from Melbourne, and thinking of restarting a previous project to provide a social Aspie site for Ozzies, and Kiwis if they're interested. I have the following domain names registered - adult-aspies.net, aspergies.com, aspergies.net and spectrumdwellers.com. Could register adult-aspies.com.au, or adult-aspies.org.au if considered more relevant.

Not really kosher to advertise a social meet up site for Aussie and Kiwi Aspies here, but..... I don't think Alex would object if the sole purpose was to enable Aspies here to become less issolated.

I run a quite large phpBB 3.1 forum for aviation retirees and interested parties, and have a commercial hosting resource available. Happy to take input on choice of name and format. Have designed and run forums and the like for many years, so no hassles in setting up another.

Alison

Ah yeah, an AU specific site - that could work well.

Probably better to try and promote this section of the forums.
If this is struggling, I doubt a separate website would fair any better.

I think its a good idea - its at least worth a try. I definately feel very isolated although thats largely my own doing.

I think there's only 240 to 400 thousand Autistic people in Australia.
