a Greeting, a beginning.

Hi there all, Eled here, long time lurker, first time poster.

Diagnosed at 16 with Aspergers syndrome, 33 now. Also a Dyslexic, and I have a speach impediment too. ( Yeah Undecided I really have the tripple threat of comunication problems.)

I'll probibly talk about my issues in other more aporriate forums later, but, I wanted to make a point of being more actave here this year and I figured it might be easyer to be honest abut things if I got the 'first post' threshold out of the way.

So what to say about me that isn't a mess of soul deadening fear, joy robbing panic, and sickly aprehension? (I'll get to some of that later.)

Well, I'm a voracious reader, an aspiring writer, and studying towards an Open university degree in the natural Sciences.

I've also been able to meet a few people elsewhere online whose children were diagnosed and like to think I've helped them get an inside track on how it feels to be one of us and make their time of it easyer.

So, that's me. Hi. 

  • Thanks for the welcome. Yeah I have well, basicly all the anxiety sadly.

    by a round about way that's why I'm here but I'm still toe dipping and nerving myself to talk about that. scary voicing fears, makes them more real. 

  • Hi Eled, welcome.

    I am currently on a hiatus from studying a science degree with the OU.

    You clearly have anxiety, which most of us have.  Hope communicating on here helps with that.
