Does anyone in your real life know about wp?

I can't keep track. I know one important person does, for which I'm thankful, though it may be some time before any of us know what we need to ask in order to understand my life; myself included.

Only my mother. She's not a net lover and she respects my privacy, so I'm fine with her knowing. I've also told her about some of the things going on on here. For the opposite reason I don't talk to my father about it. He's online a lot and would probably like to snoop, that's just the way he is.

It also came up slightly with my psychiatrist during my assessment, but that's it.

I would never tell anyone else, nor would I want anyone here to know who I am IRL. It's the privacy of being anonymous that makes it possible for me to be open here.

They might of seen me on the site before but as far as I know they're reading my posts

Most of them. At least one is a Wrong Planet member. I even have the Wrong Planet T-shirt!

I always wonder if my parents are secretly on WP reading my posts. I would absolutely hate it if they did.

My therapist might, except she doesn't know this site itself, so she can't read any posts.

My mom knows nothing about my net life. No one IRL knows my net life. xD

My mother does because I talk to her about it all the time. I even once suggested she start going on it so she can talk to other parents with ASD children, but she's not really into such things, going on websites and talking to people she doesn't know, I mean. But it's probably for the best because I'm worried of what she'll think if she reads some of my posts. Even though she doesn't know my user name I'm sure she can tell if something was posted by me.

My therapist knows about it, but not by name. He was the one who encouraged me to find a group somehow. I don't know anybody in irl with autism so I had to look at the internet.

My answer is the same as it was 6 years ago.

MY family does, and my psychiatrist idk why i told her about it i can be talkative sometimes. I do't think either have ever been on here. Only person who'd likely even join would be my brother and he want's nothing to do with it. It'd be funny if sometime in the future my brother decides to join I'm fairly positive that they've never been on here and if they do they don't browse it regularly. I dont' really share my problems with peopel ein real life and i don't think i'm read to to either. It's probably better that way anyway. If people in my real life browsed here it'd be alot harder for me to feel free on here cause whatever i say here can't affect ym real life cause i don't knwo anyone IRL here. Would be pretty funny if one of the 5 people on the high functioning end of the spectrum i've met were on here though.
