I'm Zero, 31 from Pennsylvania. I was diagnosed as an aspie at age 27. A very late diagnosis. I was always aware I was different, there were issues that weren't "normal", and I just simply didn't fit in with those around me. The diagnosis was both wonderful & scary for me. Since then, I have grown to accept it and even embrace it. Despite the fact I still do not fit in at all.
I joined a forum a couple years ago but never really participated due to being shy & feeling like I'd still not fit in or make any connections. But lately I have been longing just to find people that understand and can relate to me so giving this a try again.
A little about me. I produce music make tracks & beats. And that's my complete passion. Currently, going to school for sound engineering with the hopes to turn it into a paying career. Outside of that I work at a grocery store where I manage my own department. And it's not going very well. I live in a literally one street light town, seriously our Wal-mart has horse parking! I moved here 4 years ago after being homeless from a city. I have yet to be able to adjust. The area & place I work at is full of young kids who have everything handed to them by their parents and are not open to people being different than them. Unfortunately, the area is very heavily racists. And being someone who listens heavily to rap/hip-hop it puts me as being even more different than them.
After 4 years here I am starting to feel like I am sinking and feeling greatly alone. So hoping to just join in conversations and meet new people that can understand and relate. Or are just simply accepting of people being "different". Thanks & HI.
