Hello,

I'm in my thirties and have just realised that I may have aspergers. It would really explain a lot of things about people I've met. I've never been good at communicating with other people and I don't understand body language. I can't read people very well and a lot of the time I get misunderstood by others.Perhaps this would explain why.

I have seen a GP and she's going to contact a specialist about it. So far online tests on aspergers show I'm borderline. Anyway, it's good to be here.

Hi Ragnia
Like you, I am new to WP, from the UK, in my 30s. I got my official diagnosis only very recently and am still trying to come to terms with it all. Good luck with your assessment, hope you'll get an appointment soon.
If you'd like to know about my diagnosis process, let me know!
