Well hi there everyone. 18 from Melbourne, Australia, not an aspie, but 100% SED - selective eating disorder, which is apparently part of the autism spectrum. Also, when i was about 10, a psych said i was borderline aspie, and I've noticed i'm quite similar to a lot of people on here.
I'm socially awkward, though not as bad as many, and I'm a philosophical Taoist. I find it amazing that so many aspies here are taoist, while almost noone in the NT world is. Coincidence? I think not!
So that's me... pretty boring, but it had to be said. Hope to meet you all in the near future!

Not aware of the taoist connection with AS, but definately know about eating strangely. Not aware of SED, new on me, but welcome.

There are usually a few taoist threads over in Philosophy sub-forum so probably be keen to get some fresh views. I am not a taoist myself, though. But I am a fellow aussie. Born in Essendon, live in Perth now.

I'm very similar to Aspies in a lot of ways, but diagnosed with NLD.

I also admire the thinking and behavior of Taoists.
