    How did you interact with dolls or action figures as a child?

    anyone obsessed with journaling?

    I keep sketchbooks. I love to practice drawing, and I write in them quite frequently too. It's kind of irritating though: because it's a sketchbook, people want to look at the drawings. Which is intrusive.

    do you dress differently to express yourself?

    I have always been really opinionated about the clothes I wear, and a deep and abiding love of fashion has come out of that. I used to dress really flamboyantly, which was a lot of fun, but occasionally uncomfortable when I would realize that some people thought I looked strange. Now I'm a...

    Hi, I'm Anna, and I'm trying to find out some information... (long intro)

    That... makes a lot of sense. That's what I've been thinking recently. The instance the other day is what really made me question how sure I was about how well I was doing socially.

    These are so cool. I've seen a few of them in other intro posts. I love the vivid colors! Do you paint as a hobby?

    Hi, I'm Will!

    Hi! I just wrote my (long) introduction, and reading yours was very interesting because I think it provides some examples for some of the things I'm wondering about. I'm trying to figure out if I am an aspie-- if I am, I'm not one who fits the "mold." A concise way of putting it, thank you. I...

    Hi, I'm Anna, and I'm trying to find out some information... (long intro)

    Hello! I'm 19, I'm a college sophomore studying theater and anthropology, and I'm trying to figure out if a diagnosis of Asperger's fits me. I want to write out a few of the things I've been thinking about recently and maybe hear (read) some feedback. During the first conversation I ever had...
