Hi, my legal adoptive name is Amanda but my birth and nonbinary name is “Bo”. I’m 41. I found out about this forum and the founder through Mason magazine. I scored 97 on the RAADS-R recently, well above what NTs score. I was diagnosed with ADHD a couple years ago. I recently joined an Asian support group for neurodivergents, incl. many AuDHDers. I’m still learning about my autistic side.

Welcome to WP! I hope you like it here.

P.S. You probably shouldn't try to keep up with all of WP. Find the parts that most interest you and follow them the most. (I like Television, Film, and Video.)

Grad0507, Welcome to Wrong Planet.

I have Asperger's Syndrome. One of the interesting things that I found is that although we experience many problems, many weaknesses in our brain construction, we also have an equal amount of positive attributes. The best approach in life is to understand both and use our +s to overcome our -s.
