Hello. I'm in my late 40s, got diagnosed 5 years ago. The diagnosis shed light on a lot of previous mysteries in my life. What else to share with total faceless strangers? I play guitar and bass. I'm into metal. I play and TTRPGs.

Welcome to Wrong Planet.

You wrote that you play TTRPGs. It seems that several people on the site were also into this. Had to look it up.

A tabletop role-playing game (typically abbreviated as TTRPG or TRPG), also known as a pen-and-paper role-playing game, is a kind of role-playing game (RPG) in which the participants describe their characters' actions through speech and sometimes movements.

Welcome to WP! I hope you like it here.

And, I agree, the diagnosis was enlightening...and good to know.
