Morning everyone
I wanted to introduce myself - my names Paul and a few days ago my partner shared an article with me that shed a whole new light on my life up to this point. It was an article about relationships and people with Asperger's. Everything in it, down to the smallest detail resonated with me. It was my lived experience of with friends, family and partners written down by someone else. It was genuinely mind-blowing.
I'm not sure where to go from here, but I wanted to reach out to a community and hopefully get some guidance from the materials online and peoples lived experiences. I'm happy, this is slightly scary but also incredibly liberating. It's like a light has been switched on.
Hope everyone has a good Sunday
I know the feeling right down to the 36 years part. I can't really offer any advice on moving forward yet since I'm still in that spot myself, but I've learned how much it helps to know that someone else in in the same shoes, so just know that you're not the only one.
It really is good to know - thank you. I'm taking each day at a time, this year has been a rollercoaster in so many different ways!
