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
