Hello

my name (or a name I just made up earlier) is Plectrum.

I've been diagnosed with ASD as an adult.  

Hoping to make some friends here and try being myself a bit more.  What is it like ? is it a friendly place?

 - any tips from existing users?

    hello and welcome! lots of us on here are not long diagnosed. Me 40s, F, diagnosed 2 years ago

    no real tips, other than read a few threads to get a feel of the place - "jokey" stuff tends to be on the "misc and chat" forum; more serious things on "autistic adults", and (obviously issues related to children on the "parents and carers" one
