Hey,
I'm a 25 year old woman who was recently diagnosed with autism and have now been suggested I sign up to this community, my therapists idea I'm normally not social online or in person because of my anxiety.
I'm finding that now I know I'm autistic a lot more about me and my life makes sense which is reassuring and nice to know.
I work in a museum, talking to people about different historical items and events. This also causes great deals of anxiety but also I do enjoy talking about history, so at the same time it's ideal for me.
In my free time I like to draw, listen to music, watch films, write, study history and play Sims.
Nice to meet you!
Welcome

That was my reaction too.
Your work sounds very interesting.
It's an amazing feeling isn't it?
I love my work. I'm a history geek so it's really well suited to me!
Hello Blondie. If you are ever in the north west of England I would certainly recommend a visit to Manchester Metropolitan Museum. Currently have a large ancient Egypt exhibition, Fascinating.
