Hey all. My name is Mark and I represent Atlanta, Ga. Black, loud, outspoken but cowed...all describe me.
But more to that, I'm a sensitive and somewhat misunderstood Aspie who was diagnosed long before the condition had a name or the black community had a tolerance for mental health issues.
Times, thank God, are changing though. Though there aren't a lot of support groups in the real world to help with adult Aspie's I'm glad that the online world is here. I hope to both be and draw from this vast resource it seems we have here.
My particular physical challenges have led me to some unique self driven therapy approaches that I'd like some comment on but for now I'm just glad and grateful that some people like me exist and want to help.
I might even find that woman who wants to be intimate and yet non-sexual with me without fear. We can still hope.
Ta.
