Hi everyone. I'm new. I am pretty sure (95-100%) that I am an Aspie and am in college right now. I'm going for a diagnosis so I can get help managing the social world and all that stimulation that goes along with it. I quite love my interests though, and am making a career out of them.
The thing I don't want to do is mess up on this forum. Do I wait until you guys respond to post anywhere else?

Welcome. Some folks post and others are comfortable just lurking too. So it's all good as long as rules are respected.

no, you dont have to wait till someone responds to post anything.
you're just like me in that way. i'm always afraid i'd break the rules because i dont always understand them.
it's great that you're going to college and even better your making a career out of your interest. i'm interested in alien planets that host life and ETs. still waiting for one to be discover so i can be sent there and would that be an interesting career!
i also love animals like crazy, but not going to make a career of that, either.
nice picture you've got.
