newbie aspergirl and ADD

Hello,

I'm new to the site and autism. I've recently been diagnosed with aspergers and ADD.

I'm female, 41 and a PhD researcher.

I think I'm kind of ok about it all - it makes a lot of sense, and I've starting 'coming out' to peeps. This is quite weird.

Definitely got a feeling that I'm on a voyage of discovery...

Special interests include my research, my motorbike and my dog....and the apocalypse.   (in an atheist way)

best wishes to everyone,
Lulu

  • Hi Raven,

    my research in on domestic energy use and human behaviour.

    How did your supervisors react to your diagnosis.  Mine were a little confused but ok.  I think I might have to explain things to them as and when stuff comes up.  I have just got my official report so I can speak to disability services to get some support.

    Sometimes I worry about the PhD.  :-?
