Hello!

I've just joined the site.

My husband was recently (last few months) diagnosed with ASD at the grand age of 39.

I've known he's had it for a while... well suspected he did, and issues at work resulted in him seeking a proper diagnosis.

For the most part he's highly functioning, but does struggle with a number of things.

I joined this website/forum to give me some insight and answers to things so it can help in our marriage.

I'm NT by the way! :wink:

Hello and welcome. How long was the wait between going on the list and having an assessment?

Welcome to WP, the locals seem nice. And it's nice that you said "Hi!", I hope your hubby peeks into WP, too...like I said, the locals seem nice!
