Hi,
I'm Loz, 51 year young male living in Hampshire, but originally from sunny Surrey.Currently self diagnosed for since late July and after much research, reflection and audiobook purchases, I've just requested an autism assessment via NHS Right to Choose.Going through various light bulb moments at the moment, along with a bit of anger, regret and disappointment.Love music, love driving, used to love playing football and drawing, love to hear laughter but not the canned stuff.Do not love GP's, solicitors, politicians, country music, royalty, news media amongst many other loves and do not loves.Thanks,Loz :]
Thanks Pixiefox, I used to be a regular reader but now into audiobooks and have a very selective steam library.
Welcome, I also discovered I was on the spectrum when I was in my fifties.
I like reading and playing video games, and I have just started doing some online open learn courses.
Cheers Mark,Thanks for the welcome and forum tips! I will make sure to check some more threads.Loz:]
Hi Loz,
Just to say welcome from a fellow 50 something. I hope that the assessment runs smoothly.
It's very quiet here at the weekends, and posts do drop down quite quickly too.
If you like this forum, it is good to get involved on a few other threads. If you like drawing, there is a thread you can put a picture on.
