Still around- in lurk mode

I think many of us feel like outliers here  .

Maybe that's the point.

Somewhat  apart from the rest of you

What A said - we are apart together.

Good to see you posting - is there anything on your mind that you want to share?

If not, no need to reply - just glad to see you are still here.

Just thinking about the issues/difficulties/problems that got missed or were dismissed as 'character defects' . Whether that's a common autistic experience. Especially among those of us who were late diagnosed. It's been suggested by several people with ADHD that I may well have the 'inattentive' type. It would certainly explain a lot re my difficulty prioritising, when it comes to multistep  tasks. Also school reports with frequent comments about being disorganised and messy.

At 67 I don't see any point in getting assessed,in the way I would've done 20-30 years ago. It's not always easy, in fact it's very hard at times, but living with things as they are- rather than how they could/should have been - is the sensible approach to take.

No need to back out. As my daughter would say 'no problem'
