New here, long-suffering "high-functioning" (I don't like this term) young adult with ASD.

Just wanted to connect with others in a similar situation.

And with various opinions on nomenclature.

Welcome to the site. It has taken me a lifetime to figure out why I am different than most people. But I did before I passed away. It is really a complex series of events. Humans are much more complex then what is currently thought. We have multiple brains buried deep inside us.

Welcome to the club. I'm not too keen on the "high/low functioning" deal either.
