Hi, my name is violets. My doctor recommended that I check out this site, as she believes that I have Asperger's. I'm an art school grad and I'm really struggling with life stuff right now, so I figured it'd be a good idea to join, since I feel like I need the extra support, and to see if I can get some help in maybe getting a proper diagnosis. I've struggled to find a place that'll give me a full diagnosis as I'm an adult, and most places in the area only diagnose kids.

Also I like obscure video games, cats, and spooky stuff. I'm excited for Halloween!

Hi violets, nice to meet you. I was diagnosed in January of this year, have your doctor recommended you see a psychologist for a diagnosis or just asking you to look into it? Many people start with their GP for a recommendation on where to go. I went to a counselor who was able to find a place for me to go.

I have zero artistic ability, which makes artists all the more impressive to me. Do you paint or draw or what?

Welcome! Good luck with your diagnosis.

My doctor recommended me a few places, but all of them ended up saying that they no longer did any adult diagnosis. I'll keep looking in the meantime though, and see if I can work something out.

I'm an animation major! I mostly do digital drawing and painting, but I have a pretty good sized stack of sketchbooks too. I'm starting to get back into the swing of animating so I can update my portfolio in hopes that I can get a job animating. My dream job is to work on cartoons, and to open my own animation studio one day!

Hey violets welcome.

That's awesome! Do you have a certain style you like best? Does any cartoon give you inspiration?

Oh jeez, there's a lot of stuff that's been a big influence on me. A lot of older cartoons in the 90's, like Hey Arnold are one, along with the basics like Disney and Studio Ghibli, but I think one of my more recent and bigger inspirations has been older Ukrainian and Russian animation, and a small Japanese studio called Gekidan Inu Curry. They have a really unique style of animation, and they do a lot of illustration too. There's a really cool fanmade tumblr blog dedicated to them if you want to check out some of their work! I would link my favorite piece of animation they've done too, but unfortunately, Youtube removed it a while back. :C

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

I like plural nouns as names, not sure why. Welcome.
