Hello everyone,

Peter Crawford here (not my real name), I'm an autistic person of around thirty years, struggling to learn some informatics so I can eventually have a job I can tolerate for more than a few months.

Aside from reading (lots of fantasy books, some non-fiction and some classics), watching movies and series, I like to hike, to go to museum, and sometimes to sail.


I have been diagnosed with ASD for a couple of years, and wish it had been for longer.


I'm quite fond of Bernese Mountain Dogs, so here's the why for my avatar.

And finally : not a native english speaker, so excuse me for my writing mistakes please.

Because you like to read, there is an Arts forum for all who enjoy books.

The TV & Film forum is straightforward.

Hello Peter Crawford! Welcome to Wrong Planet! I’m sure you’ll find a lot of nice people here! I too like to go to museums myself. So far my most favorite ones is The Field Museum (particularly the Ancient Egyptian exhibit) and the Museum of Science and Industry, both in Chicago, Illinois.

Welcome! I saw in the book thread that you're finishing Malazan. Maybe we can talk about it when you're done?

Lately I've been doing a CBT planification that has helped me doing chores and going out of my cave.

I'm quite happy with it, I'm thankful for having some good and structured psychological help for a time ! :)
