Parents
  • From reading others posts over the last year, I would say that the majority of people here are autistic. I estimate that most of the posts here are by adults who have been diagnosed ASD in adulthood, while slightly fewer adults here are self-diagnosed ASD.

    We often have posts by people who have been diagnosed ASD in childhood. 

    Sometimes non-autistic parents or relatives of autistic children or adults post here looking for advice about something autism related. 

    I can’t be accurate about my representation of the community here, as this is just my biased impression and estimation.

    I am a woman in my 60s, and I was diagnosed ASD only ten months ago. I am also awaiting an ADHD assessment.

    This forum is open to all adults aged 18 or over who identify with being autistic, diagnosed or not. It is also open to non-autistic people who wish to post about things concerning their autistic relatives or friends.
