Hi,

I have spent now a few months wandering around the Wrong Planet, but I had never posted anything before.

Even though, I would say I do have some friends, and I even had a girlfriend when I was a teen, I have always felt different to other people, and I have been considered as such, mainly weird and rude. Now I am in my fourth year at university - I am a 22 year old male -, and it seems to me as I can't make any new friends, not to mention date a girl.

For me, it is extremely difficult being around people I don't know, or being in noisy places, such as cafeterias or discos. Since, I have always been this way, I thought I was just very shy and a bit depressed, but I stumbled accidentally with this website, and I have noticed that many odd ways of behaving that I have are not just mine, but that there is a lot of people with the same issues. I am referring, for example, to following routines, and getting frustrated when they change for some reason, or being pissed off when I am doing something I enjoy and someone - usually my mother - interrupts me or being obsessed with very specific topics.

Nevertheless, some AS symptoms don't seem to apply to me; for example I was fairly good at some sports, like basketball. I have done some online tests about AS, but I guess you can never be sure until you talk to som psychiatrist, and that is not likely to happen anytime soon.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hi. Hopefully we can all make our lifes a little bit better with this online tools.

Thank you for reading and sorry if some sentences are poorly structured, but English is not my first language.

You can never be sure, indeed. Even if you don't meet all the criteria, you may still be on the spectrum
Welcome

Hi V_Cast! Welcome to Wrong Planet! Check out the many interesting and helpful forums here. I chose not to click on your Avatar. I don't want to see anyone naked, including myself. Maybe even especially myself! :lmao:
