    Your first job

    My first job was in a cafe. I hated it and quit after about 6 months. My second job was better, working at a TV station in the transmission room. I stayed for 3 years and worked my way up to directing all broadcast/on air programming. I loved it!

    What do you think of animals?

    I love all animals, but my cat Dex is my best pal. We go for walks and long drives in the car together and he follows me around the house everywhere. I would love to get dogs and a horse one day too.

    Why can't people just say what they mean?

    I cannot read when people are being sarcastic. I take them literally. Unless there's an obvious tone of voice change or they laugh. So now that I know that (I was only diagnosed recently), I just ask them. I don't care what they think of me.

    Why is holding a grudge = the bullies win? I don't get it.

    Holding a grudge is like drinking poison hoping the other person will die. A grudge eats away at you like a poison, but it doesn't hurt the bully. They have no idea what's going on in your head or in your life even, so it doesn't even remotely effect them. It only hurts you. I was bullied...

    What are your sensory issues?

    Quite a few for me: Touch, I don't like being touched by people I don't know well, and even with people I do know well, if it's unexpected, it burns. I can't touch corduroy or velvet, and I can't walk on dry sand. I also don't like slimy things or raw meat, but I'm trying to desensitize myself...

    hello

    Thanks everyone. I have joined a group for people with aspergers at my local autism branch, which has been great. Still trying to find a specialist who can diagnose me without me having to pay loads of money.

    hello

    Hi everyone, I'm new here. I'm in the process of being diagnosed for Asperger's. It is such a relief to know what's wrong with me! Or should I say... what's right with me!
