    I'm new here and I thought maybe this could be a cure for me.

    As a person who has been officially diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, I feel like I have lived a life of 80 years even though I am still very young. I have never fit in with society, I have always been indifferent to the things they can't get enough of doing. I am 18 years old but I have...

    AspiAngie's Introduction to the Autism Forums

    I just realized I never actually made an introduction thread for myself. I posted in the generic introduce yourself thread and posted something on my profile, but as for my own introduction thread I never did. So I am now. About me: I am Angie and live in Canada. I am just about 50. I was born...

    Hello, new here

    Hello everyone, I’ll go by Autumn here and I’m not sure where I fall on the spectrum. I came across the forum from another social media platform and it seems like a welcoming place to talk. I’ve been wanting an official diagnosis, but unfortunately I lack the financial resources to see a...

    Introduction thread :3

    Hello! I'm self-diagnosed with autism. I wanted to join here to have a way to ask questions to people that can relate to me in ways that many people in my life don't. I'm a young adult and still in school. It takes so many spoons. I'm dating a guy that is non-autistic and communication gets a...

    Hi there!

    My name is Sarah, I’m 26-years-old, and I was diagnosed in September. Since then, I’ve been looking for a place where I can talk to others who are like me. It’s difficult to even get started here; I feel like no matter what I say, I’m never actually expressing myself how I would like to. But I...

    Beginning of My Journey

    Hi Everyone, I'm not entirely sure how to begin this post, but I feel like my journey is just beginning. My entire life I have felt different and haven't really been able to pinpoint exactly why.

    I'm not sure what to write here...

    Hello I am new to the forum. I discovered it while searching the internet to see if some of my "quirks" are just autistic traits. Specifically, when I get overwhelmed, I have a tendency to shut down or freeze. Such as when I feel like I cannot speak. The thoughts and answers to people's...

    Yeah, hi

    I'm SuperDawg, I was born with High-Functioning Autism and I like to play video games. I am also mixed-handed which means I do different tasks with both hands, which is cool, I guess. Edit: I also want to make friends on here.
