Hi there,I'm Iberata

[Iberata]

Glad to have found you all.
Self diagnosed later in life, although I really had many signs
leading me to a diagnosis. I will soon seek an official diagnosis hopefully.
Right now I am quarantined at home, due to covid.
And, of course, spending my time sorting my collections and going
through my handmade altered books.
Color is my obsession, although I only wear black (so difficult to decide what
goes with what, black is simple and efficient).

Hello and welcome.

black is simple and efficient

Agreed! Nice to hear someone else who thinks this.

Hello and welcome.


Agreed! Nice to hear someone else who thinks this.

I have grey shirts and bluejeans and grey shorts. Easy matching.

Welcome Iberata! Nice to meet you. I hear you on the efficient clothing, I'm the same way but in more of a uniform way. It'd be nice if you shared some of your books sometime because I've never heard of anything like that, it sounds cool!

 

[Iberata]

Will certainly do @Tristan_USA , and thank you all for the welcoming words!

Welcome to Iberata!
It would be nice to know more about your books as I have never heard of this either.

I'm glad you found us and hope you enjoy being here.

Hi there, lberata

I joined as a self diagnosed too and then, finally got my diagnosis.

Me too, into colour, but lol get annoyed with black. I hate going with the crowd and black is the mainstream colour, so I steer away from it as much as possible.

HI @Iberata

Welcome to the Forums.
Your handle mades me think of Iberia - Spain. Is there any connection of is this purely chance.

 

[Iberata]

Not actually. Iberata comes from the so called Blood Grass, which is spelled Imperata
but I changed it. I am obsessed with color, and this one has an amazing red/burgundy/orange/lime
shine when hit by the rays of the sun.

Hi @Suzanne ! It is complicated to search what color goes with what,
and since it bothered me all my life, am finding it easier to match everything,
by wearing only one. Also, I find black is everything, all colors melt into it,
it's magical.
