I'm 44 years old and - well - sometimes a woman, sometimes a man and mostly without gender. :-)
Family: I have a 26 year old son who had a lot of trouble at school when he was younger because of dyslexia + intellectual giftedness, especially in maths and nature science. School was a pain for him, so he left early and then needed a year for psychic recover! But now he is as happy again as before he came to school. He did many different jobs as a worker by now, mostly about "time-work".
My father lives far away and I saw my birth family very seldom, but I will meet my brother this year.
I have more contact with my "beloved ex-lover", who is now my best friend.
Well, and my present one is very chaotic...
Education: I began to study pedagogics when I was 28 and aborted the scholastics with burnout. After this really deep depressive time I began to make computer graphics, which rebuilded my visual mind and "inner gallery" that were reduced to ashes from all the horror visions I had. Since then pictures of violence make me frighten so strong that I fell in torpidor from "normal TV-program". But apart from that I am mostly in a very good mood!
I didn't graphics all the years - e.g. temporarily I worked as a programmer and only made 1-2 placards for political events in this time.
Job: I work as "1-Euro-employee" at Aspies e.V.
www.aspies.de .
2006 I was diagnosed with Asperger-syndrome (a little bit of autism) and since 2008 I'm in the managing comitee of Aspies e.V..
Aims and wishes: It's tedious and frustrating constantly struggling with your weak points. For the rest of my life I want to act out my strengths and talents!
What I wish from you: Respect all people as they are and think about that people are very various in their brains. E.G. a person who winces from a noise that you marginally perceive probably doesn't "make a fuss", but hears everything a great deal louder than you.
