Hi evryone,

Just a quick intro. I had early infantile autism. As a young child I was a 'little professor' type with a photographic memory who memorized everything I saw or heard. My language and communication was limited to those sort of things. Otherwise, I was completely unable to bond, make connections or advocate for my own personal needs. Language, verbal speech and communication are difficult for me to this day. I also have what is known as Sensory Processing Disorder and am on the hyper-sensitive end. I have lots of trouble with this and also with socializing, in general.

I guess that's about it. I have a hard time with making friends.

:D

welcome welcome :roll:

Instead of clinging to this one you should get out there and look around the different sections and threads see if there is anything you like or want to talk about/ask for advice.
The Haven is for when you're feeling down and blue and you need to get things of your chest then go there and wright about what's bothering you.

Otherwise the rest of it is free for all and lots of fun, enjoy WP.

Yeah, I've been around to a few threads already. It isn't easy to put yourself out there but it's great to have the opportunity to try.
