Hello everyone.
I have recently turned 29 and like most of us I took a moment to take stock of where I was, where I am now and where i am going in my life. Upon relection, there are things that I am proud of, some that regret I and thangs I wanna change. One of the things I want to change is how I deal being aspie and how I can make myself a better fit in this world.
A few events in my recent past have left me in this state of improving myself. In search of a relationship, I was misunderstood and i caught flack for it. I rebelled against my family and ended up being suppresd and one of my best friends told me the harsh truth about how my disability is perceved by others and make be feel realy sad. All this and more have given me resolve to do something about dealing with my diagnosis before it cuases more harm as i go forward into adulthood. This is some thing that is long over due.
I have started by reading some e-books and learing about Aspergers and what i can do to help gain the "life skills" that have passed me by. I am also reading up on skills on how i can make myself a better fit for society at large. Once I have gained skills i needed, i am going to intensify on working on what i am laking in my social skills.
I will also be hanging around this website more to interact with with other people with AS. I have been droping in and out the last few years but i fell this forum is one of the best places where i can gave myself a voice and i want to use it as a tool to help me in rerwting the way I do life.
This is not gonna be an easy task but something in which it somewthing i am working on day by day. I dont know when i will succeed but i know one thing, i cant stay silent and keep my emotions in.
