    Hi there - and hi everyone else!  I have just this minute joined the site, having (at 45 years of age) been provisionally diagnosed as autistic.  I have spent a lifetime in self-imposed isolation, and can no longer bear a life without intimacy and togetherness. At this stage things must either change or I must abbreviate my existence.  Hopefully there's someone out there who might wish to help me find some meaning, perhaps even a little love?

    Hi Sarah

    Thank  you for your reply. I will shuffle my wonky box next to yours.,,not too close....don't want to freak you out. Good to meet another female "wonker".... pssst....have you noticed that we seem all very academically capable but social muppets...!  Isolation does hurt and especially so in a crowded room. :(

    Very powerful statement re: diagnosis..."knowledge does not set us free".... the problem with living in a wonky box is there is not much space to fit a toolkit for life!

    I'm Sam by the way. A 42 year old teacher if Computer Science. Finished my Masters this year....and I guess un-wonking myself has been a focus since....don't like a quiet brain, do we!!!

    listen to Martian Tom also, he's very sweet and hepful
