Hi all, I'm new here and I'm saying hello in the time-honoured way.

Not diagnosed but I identify lots of aspie characteristics in myself. In a job which involves lots of interruptions and changes of priority and high pressure ... and lots of people who seem to know what is going on but really it doesn't make any sense.

I'd like to move to something that would better suit who I am.And I'd like to find local support groups (south east England). But mainly ... I'd like to connect with people I have something in common with :D

Hey.

Hope you like it here. Out of curiosity, how would you finish your username? The first word that came to my mind was 'different'.

Something like "... normal!" Or "well-adjusted" or "happy". None of which are true inside. It's all about the mask, which I suspect you are familiar with :wink:

Sadly, it's something that we all wear everyday.

I think you will fit in just fine. 8)

Hello. SE England covers a lot of territory. Could you narrow that down a bit? And Welcome.
