Hello, my name is Bob. I am 59 years old and I was just diagnosed with ASD w/o intellectual impairment about 3 weeks ago. I had suspected that was the case for 8 or 9 years, and became pretty convinced about a year ago and was finally tested in January. I was drawn to this site by the name alone and look forward to exploring and to getting to know people.

Hi Bob! Diagnosed at age 68, what a wild ride to sort it all out and finally get answers to lifelong "whys".
Welcome! Glad you are with us.
