Hi, I'm new. I'm not sure if I have AS or not. I'm here because my family members say I might have it.
My two main obsessions are cartoon characters and the past. I've been obsessed with various cartoon characters ever since I was a kid. They were my friends in a way, because I didn't have many real friends. Around middle school I started to miss the year when I was 10 (1995 and 1996, but mostly 1996). This started my obsession with the past. Around this same time some of the cartoon characters I liked became full blown crushes.
When I was 14 I got fed up with being picked on, so I started skipping class. This led to me being kicked out of school. My family and I moved right after that, and I never went to school again.
Recently, I've become interested in the late 90s and early 00s (even though I used to hate most of those years). Right now I like 1996 - 2001 (mostly 1999 and 2000). My favorite cartoon character is Bart Simpson. I used to have a crush on him in 1999, 2000, and early 2001, so when I rediscovered that era my feelings for Bart returned.
I've never learned to drive or had a job (even though I'm going to have to). It's like I'm still a kid in a lot of ways.
