Introductions (beehaw.org)

Thought I'd get the ball rolling as this is empty!

I'm neamhsplach, I'm undiagnosed but I'm being screened for possible ADHD and/or dyspraxia because of some issues I've had with work.

I love Taskmaster and never miss an episode of The Blindboy Podcast. Looking forward to chatting to you all!

Hello. I'm late 30s and undiagnosed, since my country has a 30 month waiting list for adult diagnoses right now. Maybe I have ASD, or maybe i'm just regular weird. Who knows. What is normal anyways?

I feel this on a deep level hahaha. I'm also undiagnosed, although I think I'm closer to inattentive ADHD from what I've read. I have a LOT of time on my hands while I wait to see a specialist to wonder if I am just super weird and there's nothing more to it 😆

Hey all. I've introduced myself elsewhere so I'll keep this fairly short, I have a lot of trouble with loosely defined social concepts like gender and romance. More tightly defined ones like social norms I tend to have an easier job with. I also have aphantasia and am generally just a very odd person, which is part of why I like to identify as a bunny.

We (parents, counselors, teachers etc.) are 99% certain that our eldest son is "on the spectrum". This has been quite a journey learning about all of this.

We (everyone mentioned above, including our son) are very confident that we'll be able to find the support that our son needs.

When I've asked my eldest son if he "trusts the process" (i.e. finding the support that he needs) he has responded positively.
