Hello from Orangegnome

Orangegnome

hHi I have decided to join here to meet similar people. My name is Orangegnome and I am not officially  diagnosed autistic but I am on that journey. I am a 50 year old woman, just here to enjoy chatting without pressure

  • Thank you for replying! I have had a lightbulb moment as read so much recently and always score very high on free autism quizzes. I do alot of stimming, even in company of people I trust, and I have always thought that was just me. Some friends have said I can’t be autistic because I am a nurse and have a lot of empathy, and have been labelled as a highly sensitive person. Having read more studies it seems the empathy and high sensitivity are signs of autism in women. And I totally hyper focus on things, my special interests take over all the time!
