I can't tell you who you are.
You have got to disconnect from every influence trying to tell you who you are and sell you an identity.
Then to get a good overview, you could take a role playing game character sheet and fill out your stuff there.
They are made to roughly define a person's characteristics, and, like a role playing game, you can keep it and use it as guide to "level up" on skills and abilities.
Check out this film for further instructions. (That's where I got the idea ;) )
I also suggest you download and check out this episode, because it talks A LOT about your mind, your self, your identity, and all that without trying to sell anything.
Try some meditation.
Write down what YOU like.
Write down what YOU think.
Discard what everyone has told you is cool and fun.
Mimicking others personalities is for normals ;)

But, again, you can't let others decide for you.
Not media, not your friends or families, not us, only you.
Those are some great ideas,thanks.I have all the episodes of that show on my computer,Sean kennedy is so cool.Im gonna do what you said,Im just gonna try to forget everything I've been told is cool and see what I really think.I've tried making a DnD character sheet of myslef before but I got depressed when the only skill I could think of was "gives good hugs" LOL.

Yeah, I can say that he is probably the main inspiration to me in my struggle to cope with AS and make my life better.
Well, hugging is a skill.
I know a girl who tells me I hug better than most guys she knows. :oops:
What else have you done? What do you like to do? Any talents? You don't have to be a wonder child, most people are mediocre in most fields, but I guess you've had the time to do more than hugging people? ;)

just got home from school, i posted here rescently (duhhh!! !) in health class, i had a revelation...
the reason you feel this way is because you have no goals at the moment...
set up a long term or just a short term goal for yourself...
I GUARANTEE you will feel better...
:D
hope i help!! !!

Yeah, setting up a goal is important.
Even if you can't think of something, you can set up the goal to find a goal. I did that and it worked fine.
Or you can set up as a goal to solve your problem of figuring out yourself.
