Hi, I'm new here. Decided to join after lurking in the background for a while.
Was diagnosed with autism a few years ago, and, on whim of confidence, thought it would be beneficial to join as I don't talk to anyone during the day (I work at home writing) and I thought my sanity would thank me later if I stayed in contact with people. (and It's easier behind a computer screen)
I haven't been on a forum previously, and am not on social media, so please go easy on me. I don't know.

Hey bud welcome aboard. I'm glad you decided to make the move to sign up, that's a bid deal especially when you've been isolating so much. Hope to see you around the forums.

Hi al2Listens8, welcome to Wrong Planet!

I was the same as you when I joined (I'd never been on a forum or social media, and I was nervous too). I haven't regretted joining and I'm sure you'll enjoy it here as well. :)
