Hello!  Just introducing myself, I'm Jade, I was diagnosed with aspergers yesterday at 27 years old and it's just sinking in now

    Welcome Jade.

    There are plenty of us here who have been through the "sinking in" stage before you, so you're in good company. It can be a little bit up and down for a while at first for some people, but whether you're having a moment of confusion, or have a wonderful insight to share, there will be folks here ready to listen to you and to lend some helpful advice if you need it. The one bit of advice that I always give is to try not to rush too much; it can be a lot to take in, so be kind to your mind and take time out to pamper yourself a little bit and to properly digest what you learn.
