Just a few words from a true high functioning autism viewpoint.

Can very much relate to this.
While I was going through the whole mess of hospital admissions and being diagnosed with Autism, I did become put off coming into chat in the end... I blamed it on my inability to articulate myself well, but looking for support was also often met with silence.
Took it on the chin as best I could... and tried to be understanding that 'certain' people were in more need.
