Hi Longman
I think where it depends where on the spectrum people are as to how they might make their observations. There’s also the element of conditioning, those of us at the higher functioning end of the spectrum have learnt to conform to get on in life…
OMG! I get this too!!! This makes total sense!! I wasn't sure if it was peri-menopause or ASD!!! (I am waiting Adult ASD assessment/diagnosis) I know EXACTLY what you mean ('inner secretary' - great description BTW).
I have seen a massive…
I've come to a point in my life where, after looking back over it - at the things that have happened, the things I've done and not done, the things I've achieved and not achieved - I can begin to make a reasonable judgment about what's likely to happen…

I find noise a real headache. Noise has caused me untold problems in work when trying to concentrate. Interestingly though when I was studying…
