I suppose this is something we share as well. My husband just told me this morning that he has observed me, and I'm good at answering questions, but I never initiate anything. So I am here, "introducing" myself, saying "hello", because I was asked to do so :-D

Hello. I'm Ket, from Finland, living in Sweden, with my Danish husband who is Jewish and has ADHD and our English Springer Spaniel.
I am waiting for "official" testing to get an "official" diagnose, but I recognize myself in most of the "typical" things and get high points in on-line tests, so I'm pretty sure I'm an aspie. At least I like to think I am. It would explain a LOT.

I know what you mean Ket, about waiting, recognizing the traits of Aspies in yourself. I need more tests,myself, but I do hope it is AS or I dont know what else it could be!

Hi Ket, welcome to WP!!

It sounds like you have an interesting home life.

I am awaiting testing myself. Same for me, it'd explain a lot. I'm reading Tony Attwood's book and have found myself emphatically present on almost every single page. I hope your testing goes well. Look forward to reading your posts.
