Another one

[Gary Reese]

Yup I'm another one. They didn't call it that when i was evaluated, but the similarities are unmistakeable.
In my case it's not a handicap, it's something very different. I learned to control it as a teenager. I use it in the creative process. I'm that 1% that they don't talk about, the other side of the coin.

Still , there are issues much like the ones I read about here. It's just that mine are much more manageable.
With a good bit of caution and care I used it to my advantage.

Enough for now. I'll be hiding in the woodwork.

Hi, Gary. Don't be a wallflower. Join in. Sounds like you have some valuable information you could share.

Welcome! On here, there is no "just another one"...we are all unique in our own regards; I daresay we vary as much among ourselves as do those in the "Neurotypical" population.

Wood work is a nice interest to have. Greetings from the penguin. Time to head back south. I prefer cold weather.

Welcome Gary

Glad to hear from one doing so well in life. You will have to share some of your success stories, for sure.

Welcome, Gary.

Sounds like we have a bit in common. With a lot of work, I've managed to harness my most useful AS traits and make a good career. Looking forward to learning your story, so don't let us down and hide out. There are lots of creative types here who could use the kinship and maybe some advice. You'll get a lot from the group as well. There's always more to learn, and this is a lovely place to do it.
