I guess I may as well do this as this is supposed to be for the newer users of the forums.

I don't feel like saying my real name, but I will go by "Ty". So I'm 15 and Australian, in Year 11 in high school.

Was diagnosed with Aspergers at 3 or 5 I think, but only knew I've had it since 12.

I found out this website from a friend and a quick look through seems this is a nice place. I hope to meet some alright people here and maybe make a friend, find people to relate to or help, and probably be the one who gets help themselves as maybe getting advice from an older Aspie.

Whatever happens, hello Wrong Planet. :)

Welcome to WP.

There are plenty of Aussies on this forum, around your age and plenty that are older. Plus people from all over elsewhere.

I'm surprised that you only became aware of your diagnosis after about 10 years. I wonder if your parents ever discussed it with you during primary school. Anyways, I hope you can find people that you can relate to here.
