Hi, I'm a 23 year old guy from the Netherlands.
Got diagnosed in October 2010, so I suppose that's late in comparison with others.
I've also been diagnosed with ADD, and PTSD earlier this year (January, March.)
So I have just suffered through 7 months of group therapy learnt a lot, but nothing that really helps me with the issues I have.

In short I've had a pretty s**t life thus far, and I really want to turn it around. Be more then a depressed hermit.
I've started to experience emotions, other then those associated with negative ones, shortly after the diagnosis of AS.
It's pretty run of the mill I suppose, my issues range from mind blindness, to being an insecure emotional wreck.
And then we have the tragic story of me being hopelessly in love with someone, whom I also suspect of having AS, or at least something on our lovely spectrum.
As it happens she is currently also the only person I feel safe around. I've ever felt safe around. Which is important to me as I'm not scared s**tless when I walk across town with her.
Something I couldn't cope with alone. I also can't lie to her, I just can't bring myself to it, or accept doing it. She doesn't know the full extent of my feelings towards her.
I've given her enough information to have suspicions though.

But I suppose that's more for love and dating.

I've had several obsessions in my time, but mainly it's been rhetoric, philosophy, and mythology (mostly Norse) .

So I suppose that's me. Hi, I guess.
