Hey everyone. My name is Hannah, I'm 21 years old, and I was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was 14. It's been a tough road so far, learning to accept myself for who I am, Asperger's and all, but I'm getting there. I'm currently a junior at Fitchburg State College in Massachusetts, and Massachusetts is also my home state. I have pretty bad social anxiety, so I don't spend much time out of the house, but I'm hoping that I'll be able to change that before I graduate from college (especially since there aren't many work-at-home job opportunities out there). In my free time, I like to read (I'm currently reading Twilight by Stephenie Meyer), post on online message boards (it's how I dispell my ever-present loneliness), and watch TV/movies (I'm pretty much addicted to watching "The Simpsons" and "Friends" right now).

So, yeah. That's me in a nutshell.

Thanks, Tim. Glad to see I'm not the only "Simpsons" fan around here.

The Simpsons RULES.

And sis loves Friends, I learned a lot from that show. Mainly social interaction, though I came out like a cross between Chandler and Joey.

I'm like a cross between Chandler and Rachel, lol. I'm horribly selfish and bratty (unfortunately), but I'm also extremely socially awkward.

Hello Hannah. I actually am living in New Hampshire to attend graduate school at Plymouth State University. It's nice to see that there are other Aspies from my general part of the country. My hometown is Lenox, MA, which is in the western part of the state. See my intro in the other post. I too am a huge loner looking for friendship.

Hannah, Welcome to WrongPlanet. I also really like to spend a lot of time on my computer and watch tv and movies too. I get lonely a lot because I live by myself. Dawn
