Hi everyone :)

I just wanted to introduce myself. I’ve just been assessed this week and diagnosed with autism. So I thought it would be good to sign up here! I’m 36 so fairly late coming to realise this although I did start to wonder a few years ago.

Thanks! Buzz

Thanks everyone!

My interests tend to change around a bit but I have always loved Toy Story since I was younger, hence the Lightyear film based profile pic! I’m currently interested in researching autism, housing law and I also enjoy nature (forests, gardening, foraging etc).
 
36 isn't late. I can add another 15 years on that as I was around 43 when I discovered I could be on the spectrum and it took me two years before I was able to ask a doctor and another four and a half years wait to be assessed at the age of 51 and three quarters.
 
Hello and it's never too late to start on a journey. May it take you to insights, wisdom and joy.
