Introducing myself

Hello, I've been wanting to post something on here for a while now, so I thought I'd finally get myself together and do it.
I'm Mie, I'm from Denmark and live in probably the most boring town in the country at all.I was diagnosed with Asperger's back in '09 when I was 12 - I'm now 15.

When I got the diagnose everything seemed to go a lot worse than it already was and I felt like everything would be better if I hadn't taken the test. But, I guess it was kind of because I didn't want accept the fact that I had name on my misery back then. I didn't want to deal with it.

Now after three years, I've gotten over it. Life can still be hard sometimes, but no one ever said it would be easy, right? Or that's what I tell myself every time I get out of bed in the morning. It makes me feel a bit stronger, enough to make it through school, which I've always hated.

I have a big interest in music, it's my obsession. I started playing guitar three years ago, and I love it. I write my own songs (or at least try to), and listen to loads of music, everything that inspires me; classical, rock, metal, punk, pop. I don't wanna get stuck in one genre, because that's just too boring.
I'm hoping one day I'll get to make a carrier in music, anything at all, as long as it's something where I can release my passion for it. Though, being a musician will always be my biggest dream.
Oh, and Green Day is by far my favorite band in the whole world. Love them. The things I've experienced with them, because of them, are indescribable. They are the reason I am where I am today.
 
Yeah, when I was diagnosed I was wrecked at first too but its actually good to have that in the background cause then you know that the things you do that everyone says are weird are just part of you as an aspie.
I love all kinds of music, from classical to rap, from country & western to heavy metal. Music can help you tune out distractions, maybe you'll be famous one day & give us all free tickets to your concerts lol

Anyway, I reckon you’ll love it here so, welcome aboard ; ]
 
Hey!

Cool to see another new Danish member here! :)
I really like that most of us have interests in music. Music is just the best way to keep everything else out from your head.

I was diagnose back in 2008 when i was 15 years old. People told me, that there was nothing "wrong" with me, i was just lazy and i didn't want to go to school. Well, i don't like schools if it has nothing to do with my interests, but i have always had a feeling of i wasn't like the others at the school. Well, now i finished the school, but i don't have any education right now, but i hope that i can get an education that i really like, now i just don't know what it should be. :)

I had the same feeling like you. The first week after i got my diagnose, i thought everything would be better, and then i just didn't. So i got depressed and i had the feeling of having no friends at all. Now everything is almost fine, but still have the feeling of being different, when i'm together with other people.
 
Music is everything to me.
I also got really depressed back in 2008 and didn't go to school for months. I showed up the last day before summer vacation 2009, only to confirm that I was moving to another school. I went to tons of psychologist and after a year it was confirmed.
A lot of people say this, but music really helped me through the time. It really did.

I still fear education, I'm so afraid that I'm gonna end up doing something I hate.
I'm thinking about going in the direction of some distance learning in English, and prepare myself to maybe someday move to the States, in the outer New York. I've always wanted that since I went to New York last year. It would be a big challenge for me, but also a chance to show that I am able to stand on my own.
