Introduction

OddPrime29

Hello all,

Very recently diagnosed ASD, and last year with ADHD. Was signposted to the society for the community support aspect, though granted I don't see any local F2F groups listed and I'm not great at making F2F regardless, so online community here I am.

Male, 30. 

My life at the moment is teacher training for secondary maths, trying to fit my own study in around that, any other interests and then friends and family. Think I've been a bit burned out recently as nearing the end of first school placement now. Been finding myself playing a fair bit of league of legends, steel division 2 and world of tanks recently when I get the chance recently; or just finding documentaries on YouTube to watch in bed.

That's my life summed up most recently. Am putting together a more general and comprehenseive self-description on my profile.

Last thing I can think of to say is that the profile name is because I'm rather fond of the number 29 (was born on the 29th of my birth month), it is both an odd and prime number, and I think the  profile name has a pleasant rhyme to it written as it is.

Hope you're all well, and best wishes

  • Hi and welcome to the community. My favourite number is 42 (the meaning of life in A hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, and my AQ50 score)

    I'm female in my sixties and retired, but during my working life my roles included Accounting, Special Needs Teaching Assistant (primary) and teaching English as a second language. I can understand your burn out - I would imagine that secondary maths teaching is quite challenging!

    I enjoy reading and playing video games, although my preference is RPGs such as Assassins Creed, and I'm also a long term Sims 4 player.

    Hope you enjoy chatting with us.

    Hi Lotus, thank you for welcoming me!

    That's a nice one, something warm/friendly about even numbers, and it's got a lot of different properties too!

    How are you finding retirement? I see you and Profdanger above have both worked/currently work in roles supporting people with SEND; have also been curious about specialisng in this regard. Granted only a sample size of 3 here, but perhaps its not an unusual calling for us.

    Yes it certainly can be, trying to hold onto those pleasant moments tightly! Did some cover-supply TA work for a primary during the summer last year, still find myself thinking back to that experience in comparison to secondary now.

    Oh yes I like reading too and enjoyed Assassin's Creed a lot, would probably say number 2 the most. What're your readig preferences?
