Lately I been feeling a lot of confidence and optimism about my life lately. Something I have not felt for many years. I have hope with enough work, that I will have both a happy professional and personal life and finally overcome the demons which have haunted me for many years.

I have thought back at what I have achieved in my life, surviving an emotionally neglected childhood, graduating from high school, managing to complete a year of TAFE after failing another so miserably, getting myself into university and finally managing to pass all subjects in the one semester I have been there. On top of that I have established the young adult aspie social group, which has been successful beyond my wildest dreams.

My life may not be great right now and I may not have all the things people my age or even younger have, but I know things will get much better for me this year and in the following years.

Wrongplanet.net and it's members have helped me that I am not alone in the world, be aware of my deficits I have in social skills and how I can remedy them and also to realise the great potential I have in my life.

Due to the bullying and insane family life I have had, I've been very repressed emotionally and unable to express my true self to others, without fearing what their reaction will be. Deep inside I have a warm, loving, if not a little goofy personality. When I can express my personality fully, people like me quite a lot.

I extend my thanks to wrongplanet.net and it's members, and to Dr Tim Godber, Julie Gillan, Axel Scholz and Mary Fraser. I could have never done it without you folks!

I will remember you folks when I am at the top. I also promise to visit some of you members in real life in the years to come.
