About two years ago, happened to stumble across a description of Asperger's and was overwhelmed with how much I identified with it. Over the past two years, I have continued to research it, take the online quizzes (always scoring pretty high), read the blogs, and have decided that - whether or not I technically have it - I definitely strongly empathize with about 90% of what I have read,
I'm 49, and doing moderately well with my life (despite a lot of uphill battles), so I'm not sure I see the benefit in seeking an official diagnosis, but I often feel validated and better about myself when I read about others who share common issues/concerns/quirks that seem linked to Asperger's, so I thought maybe popping in here from time to time would be a good reaching out of sorts.
So, hi to y'all !
