Many of us have done research awaiting diagnosis. This in my case includes courses and am convinced I know myself. I can't afford expensive private diagnosis from anyone who makes a business out of it. If anyone thinks I'm not autistic, prove it.

As a volunteer in various societies over many years, giving full commitment whilst tolerating the lack of respect and acknowledgement toward me on the part of some; I'm finally learning to walk away. Call me a slow learner if you like. Recently joined two. One I'm enjoying the other resigned from.

The National Autistic Society in my area only focuses on the young and has no group for adults. Are you in one? What is it's function? Any tips on starting one?

Got on a local bus, which I haven't done in years. Everyone seemed to know each other, and the driver and me. Torture. I couldn't hide.

I've done the training and now have a date for an interview regarding a volunteer role. I know I'll be asked the dreaded question "How are you?" or "How are you feeling?" As an autistic individual I'm looking for suggestions.

I've criticised no one and no one has criticised me today. Despite the poor weather and short days, I can call it a good day here in Wales. Looking forward to reading my book in bed with a reasonably peaceful mind wishing I could pass that on to you all.

Came across Plutarch's description of the situation back in his day referring to the " dishonest buffoonery of mob eloquence". Nothing changes.

Made me feel good while out walking locally. Thought I would share it.

I hate listening to TV ads so I mute them. If I watch at all lately I think I can lip-read. It's either, planning a funeral or making a will or both. As if I can't see to it myself at my age when all around me my contemporaries are dropping like flies. I need cheer not fear.

Although I live one day at a time, I still have my list of things to do sorted at the end of each day. Maybe just me being autistic. It's 7am here in Wales and I'm ready to roll.

Thank goodness for a better font. I commented to someone just today that I had a problem with the bold font and was considering leaving even though I'm quite new. My being autistic. Hey ho
