Hi,
I'm getting nagged for spending too much time on You Tube and not enough time trying to make friends.
I enjoy music, going to the cinema and pop concerts and am now getting ready to enter the big wide world of work. Any advice/ social chat appreciated (will keep mum happy)
Hello and welcome to the forum! I’m a 39 year old woman with 3 daughters (22, 5 and 2). Are you on Facebook? There are a number of ‘closed’ or ‘private’ women only Facebook groups for women with autism/Aspergers. These might be a better way for you to make friends and also find other autistic women your own age that live near you. This is how I started my social group that I run locally for autistic women, probably about half of my members came from one such group.
Hi, Thank you for this - please can you tell me how I would go about finding groups on Facebook? Finding some friends locally would be good - though a bit scary to begin with x
I did a search for groups with aspergers/autism and then picked a few I thought sounded ok. Some I've styed a member of, some I haven't
Some common ones are:
aspie girl: a closed encounter
Women with Autism/Aspergers UK Support Group
British Female Aspergers/Autistic Support Circle - UK Original
Asperger's and Autism for adults UK
Aspergers UK
Thank you I will for sure check this out
Was just about to do a list. You beat me to it
