Yes i am a big star trek fan. i notice you have ADHD and aspergers? In the UK it is uncommon to be diagnosed with both at the moment.

Love your username too.

Hi. Welcome to WP. Hope you like it here.

Do you live in Liverpool? I'll be returning from Northern Ireland on that day but I'd be happy to meet up at some other time.

Do you have an affinity for any specific character(s)?

That seems odd, because AFAIK up to one-third of Aspies have ADHD. I was diagnosed by a psychiatrist who specialises in ADHD. I was expecting that diagnosis; what I was NOT expecting is to be told (indeed, with confidence) that I am an Aspie! I can now see why both are correct -- and very grateful at his insistence.

Thanks again for all the welcomes

i love captain janeway as shes a woman doing a mans job (compared to all the other male captains).

i also like Odo and his story with his feelings for Kira and understanding human emotions and feelings.

i think one of my mates rally man has autism and ADHD but the asperger diagnosis was removed and the ADHD one put back on.

Can you confirm that part of the ADHD criteria excludes literal thinking? Since Rally man is literal thinking so that's why im wondering if hes autistic as well. Hes not exactly aspie but could be classified as autie. hmmmmm

i love the name JetLag thats funny, also your banner richie made me laugh.
