hello everyone. i've actually been a member of this website for a couple of weeks, but i had to get up the courage to finally introduce myself. (yes my social anxiety is that bad). i'm a 24 year old male. I'm obssesed with music, reading, adult swim, and general weirdness, in that order. I have not officially been diagnosed with HFA or Asperger's, but its the only thing that i have found in my extensive research that explains my bizzare behavior(including what i've come to know as "stimming"), and social retardedness. in fact, in the sixth grade one of my teachers brought up my possible autism to my parents at a parent-teacher conference, but my parents in their infinite wisdom reacted with the whole "how dare you say that about my son! rabble rabble rabble!"...anyway, throughout most of my life i felt like an outsider, and this messageboard has shown me that i'm not the only one who's like this; there is a whole community.
thanks and sorry if i'm boring
