Bio

Hi everyone. I'm new here and really glad to have found this site. I am a wife and mother with 2 teenager daughters at home! It is tumultuous most of the time.

I love traveling, reading, gardening, cooking, and biking if I have time outside of work. I would love to connect with others and my passion is personal finance as I am working toward financial freedom. We've had our ups and downs, but if you are interested in discussing financial topics I would be happy to offer any help and guidance informally.

Multiple diagnoses
Autism Support / by reservedOwl321

...See more As an older person I was never formally evaluated. But my daughter was recently diagnosed AUDHD, and also seems to present with anxiety and it is prompting me to question If I might have something similar which I mask so much that it has caused me a neurological movement disorder. If you have multiple diagnosis is there an evaluation process that evaluates more than just the autism? She went through separate tests as ADHD presented first and she wasn't tested for autism until later. This off topic, but maybe someone who is international can tell me. Is the this a US only system? I read somewhere that the conditions are treated differently in other countries. I'm questioning if maybe we should move.

I enjoy to gardening, cooking, travel meeting people from around the world, reading, working out to name a few. Oddly I am becoming a civil war buff lately. I don't have a huge support circle right now, but I make my small circle a priority. Sometimes I don't respond quickly due to my work schedule and cups overwhelm, but I enjoy private and small group chats on here and will do my best to give a substantial supportive response. If you'd like to join please introduce yourself here.

...See more I have been really trying to get some weight off, I mean REALLY trying.  Maybe it is being a woman of middle age, but it's not working.  Maybe I should say it is working a little, but VERY slowly.  I was wondering if anyone has any book suggestions.  I haven't done much reading on health at all, so what are the best fitness/healthy living titles out there.  What has helped you?  TIA
