Recently I found out I have aspergers. I am waiting on a diagnosis but I match all the symptoms. I was just wondering if someone who also has AS would like to chat with me. Thank you

2% of the whole population (3.6% of the male population, every 28th male), that's not so least. With 500 contacts on Facebook, you could've 10, already. There are other places where you meet all the thousands. Without any intention to do it, I'm in contact with many aspies, I've collected them from more sources onto Facebook and elsewhere without any effort (I got 4 diagnosed from High IQ groups, 2 are classmates, and so on...). The chances are, you're on the same because it's not a rare condition.
Best regards,
J. VysvaderYou can feel free to get in touch
