I agree with getting better over time. I've picked up coping skills as I go along and, through trial and error, gotten better at lubricating my social awkwardness with humor.

I didn't know that what I was coping with was Autism. I had no clue about that until I was 64. I just knew life seemed strangely, subtly more difficult for me in ways that didn't seem to apply to others. It seemed unfair. Over the decades I did well enough in life that I became more confident the problem wasn't me, it was the World. (Now that I know I'm an Aspie I feel even more strongly that the World is at fault, not me.)


This is me too. I often find the people here say things better than I can express them.

At first, I was afraid to post my age because I figured an autism forum would be full of young tech savvy people who would automatically dismiss anyone my age. Turned out there was nothing to be afraid of.

I also like seeing people who are older. It gives me hope.

from me to you, you may just be able to head that off a ways with a daily course of the following-
3 grams d-aspartic acid, 1 gram tongkat ali, 1 gram panax ginseng, 2-3 grams l-citruline, up to one gram fenugreek concentrate, 50-100mg pycnogenol.

You mean all of those charities that call me a "member" (because I once gave a couple bucks to them years ago) are ...really calling me a "dick"?????? :evil:

It's really pretty even for most age groups. People 51-60 are slightly less well-represented than any age group between 20 and 70.

I see quite a few people under 20, actually.
