Hi, I'm new.(: Over the past few months I've stumbled up a handful of information about asperger's (as a young adult). The criteria described me shockingly well, to say the least. I'm grateful to have found some possible answers for "the way that I am" and looking forward to learning more.

All my life I've struggled with depression/anxiety and overall, the feeling of not belonging. Thus, I am delighted to find this website and even more delighted by the name of it. :mrgreen:

I'm here to have discussions, learn more about asperger's, others who have it, maybe make some friends and hopefully pick up some helpful strategies and coping mechanisms along the way. Can't wait to get to know you all :D

Hi! I joined today, too. I've also dealt with a lot of depression and anxiety, feeling like an outsider. I think this community will be very beneficial and I hope you find what you're looking for. :)

Hello and welcome. I am waiting assessment... It may go either way. A long wait when I want answers yesterday! I am hoping to make sense of stress issues (I only recently have called it stress) and energy loss issues which are the real key thing I want to either rule out or in.

I know the stuggle. With asd it's like you have to go to social school and study the Principles of Interaction because you don't pick it up as instinct.
