    Don't Be Shy To Introduce Yourself

    Hello :). My name is Zach and I was 'diagnosed' with Aspergers last year, I was also told that I hold traits of ADHD. I attend, at the moment, two Autism groups in my area and I'm looking into respite and supported living so that my family get a break from me. I think my family sometimes think...
