Yes, I am new. I would like to introduce myself. My name is Courtney. I am 26 years old and have been dealing with personality differences since .... ever. 
Anyways, I have not been diagnosed with autism, adhd Asperger, nt; however I have always interacted better with others that have been diagnosed or were considered just different by our peers. Unfortunately, I just grew up in a family that never had much knowledge or belief of mental health and I never had the opportunity to get a diagnosis or to be educated much myself. Now that I am older, I am finally going to make that my decision on my own and I'm going to stop letting others control me. That being said, I can be a pretty interesting person. I like lots of things like history, archaeology, anthropology, complicated math and science, anime, animals, nature, geometry, symmetry, extreme details, and so many others things as well. You name it. I came here because I am dealing with a lot right now- like how to make friends. I currently am trying to learn how to interact with people because I let my fiancé isolate me for about seven years and I started to get really bad obsessive compulsive anxiety issues because of it and I think I've reached my limit of insanity. I am just trying to start over and regain myself and my own mental health and I thought since wrongplanet is a very supportive place- why not. Its just hard because I have an extreme fear of people which means all of you scare the heck out of me and I'm a little bit on the demented/odd/psychotic side so its hard to like me. But here I am. I wear my heart, my emotions, and my battles all on my sleeve. And I look forward to meeting some of you and maybe making friends.
