Hello everyone!
Friend told me about this forum. He's currently lurking around just reading, but he told me he resonates with what he read a lot, so I decided to join as well.
I'm a 31 year old who's living with grandparents. I've studied economy but I've always been interested in psychology more than anything else, so I studied everything I could find psychology-related for 6-7 years now. My favorite topics are personality psychology, disorders and astrology (but in a scientific way, if one is allowed to say that nowadays).
I have my own company for digital marketing and astrology, but it's not doing great. I'm finding it hard to do everything by myself,so I'm constantly in search for like-minded individuals. Basically, I've found some theories and paradigms which could unite astrology with sciences (psychology, sociology and genetics) and I'm working on communicating those with the world, earning money at the same time, if possible at all. Currently I'm working on a website to do just that, but as I said, it's hard to do everything alone.
During the course of studying both economy and psychology, I've stumbled upon Asperger diagnosis, which seemed to explain my differences from other people the best. Of course, I managed to self-diagnose with numerous other disorders, but I've also learned about the crucial difference between getting diagnosed and not getting diagnosed - functionality. It seemed as long as I'm functional, I wouldn't get the diagnosis even if I consulted a psychiatrist.
So basically now I'm just a self-diagnosed Aspergerian looking for ways to fulfill my purpose in life and extending my global presence to include like-minded people from all around the world. I have a lot of friends IRL who I can unwind and be myself with, who also probably share the same diagnosis, but none of us ever went to see the therapist and cofirm it. I feel blessed having those people around every day, especially when I read some of the posts here which emphasise having to pretend and wear masks around people all the time.
I sincerely hope we can connect and help each other in any way we can, because the direction this world is going in could use some of our knowledge and perspective, even if we're the odd ones out.
See ya around!
