Hi, although it was suggested a few years ago i might be on the spectrum, having dealt with a bunch of other mental health issues, i've just started to look at my ASD traits as it frustrates me that although i've got a loving partner , i struggle to relate to other people, and most particularly my 22 year old son, i just never know what to say, i don't do small talk .. unless its about guitars, physics or work ..maybe i'm mistakenly looking for a magic bullet, rather than acceptance of who i am ..
unlike other things which have improved over time with work , i feel really stuck around relationships and my default setting is always to isolate (and play guitar ), so i've taken the plunge , joined here ...
Just finding my way around

Ni Nic. Welcome to the forum. I am quite new here too so finding my feet. It has been so helpful to be here and feel that I have a place that I don't have to mask. I hope you find the same.
