Well I'm 29 years old and I have Dyslexia and well I'm starting to wonder about the ADD part. But for now until I know more I can't out right say I have Aspergers. But I'm starting to question the ADD and that perhaps I was miss diagnosed.

I know I have Dyslexia there is no question in that. But the more I read about Aspergers it seems to fit who I am more then the ADD. I won't go into all if it right now because there is still a lot I have to go over and talk with my mom about. But even when my parents were told I had ADD they did not even think that, that was the whole problem.

All I know is that for someone who was told to have ADD I sure did not have many of the signs. But any ways seeing as how a found a place for a whole group of people from different areas of Disabilities and who I can talk with. Which is one thing that I have always want to do but could never find.

Most people I try to talk with always say "You make to much of a big deal about it." Maybe I do maybe I don't. All I know is that I live with what I live with and unless they want to walk in my shoes I just want them to understand that I do try to deal with it but it's something I will live with until I die and I won't be shamed of it.

If there is anything else you want to know about me just ask.

Thank you both. Oh and just to let ever one know that is a picture of my Dog who passed away in 2007. Will I take it down? I don't know she was a part of my life for 14 years and when ever I had a hard time having my dog to go to was a great help.

The dog makes better friends than majority of neurotypicals I've acquainted.

Welcome.
