Well having suffered with anxiety for every day that I can remember (I’m 56) and never feeling ‘like other people appear to’ I’ve been recently well informed that I’m on ‘the autistic spectrum’ and a high functioning Aspergers, affectionately known as an Aspi, I’m told.

Having done my research (as you do) I’m surprised it’s never been picked up before but gives little solace as apparently ‘that’s me’ and there is ‘no cure’

Well educated, high achiever at work and sport but totally crap at relationships and socially (if I feel like people need me or expect me to conform) and behave like a fish out of water if not living (read trapped) in my bubble of routine and rigidity.

Anyone else a member of the club?
