Hello,
I'm a thirty one year old female who was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome a couple of months ago. Although I'm glad to finally have an answer to the question "why am I the way I am?", I'm still no better off in the sense that there's no support groups in my region or people I can communicate with who understand when things fall apart. I'd really appreciate some advice such as how to cope with meltdowns (had one today and wasn't until I got home and closed the door that I finally managed to calm down). Things get pretty lonely and find it nion impossible to make friends. I've been dithering about for a while now, trying to pluck up the courage to introduce myself on this site. I'm not really sure what to do or say. Would really like to meet like minded people who can offer support and possibly be a help to others who have had similar experiences.
