Hello everyone. Once upon a time I came here as a dumb teenager trying to seek guidance for something I thought I was diagnosed with, I made a few dumb posts here and there, and inevitably left when I realized that I didn't fit in very well due to a vast difference in maturity levels. Turns out they just said "You show symptoms of Aspergers Syndrome and have ADD." and I wasn't paying attention enough. Go figure. Either way, 8 years have passed since then, I was 15 then, 23 now, and once again I want to learn more about what I might possibly have. Hopefully I've matured a lot since then, so hopefully I wont aggravate any of you (for a bad reason). I guess I'll look into changing my profile and what not not. Either way, nice to meet all of you!

Wow! You're probably a legend then considering you were here from the beginning. I think that's something to be proud of. Welcome back!

Thanks! If by legend you mean some guy who came here, made some posts over a span of a couple months, then never returned most likely not leaving an impression, then sure, why not. :P

Welcome back. They told me "your behavior is consistent with Asperger's". Later, I said "So, I can put down diagnosed on the Wrong Planet site, right?" They said, "it's really more traits of Asperger's".

You are not alone.
