Greetings from New York

[You'llPokeYourEyeOut]

Hello there!

My name is Crystal, and I am a recently diagnosed Aspie. I have noticed since I was a little girl that there was something different about me from everyone else. I am hoping to make some new friends here. The friends I do have are NT, so it would be great to meet others who are like me.

Hi and welcome to AC! Its nice to meet you. I joined for the similar reasons, myself. I wanted to understand myself better and get to know other aspies like me.

You've hit the jackpot here, Crystal. Aspies wall to wall.

I would wager you'll find a lot of people here you can make friends with. This is a very warm and knowledgeable group. You'll find people here who are newly aware of their Asperger's, like you, plus lots of "veterans" who can share their wisdom. Feel free to jump in anywhere. All of your questions are welcome.

It will be good to know you.

Welcome

I recommend taking a look at our resources section, for AS-related material: Autism & Asperger's Resources | AspiesCentral.com

I especially like to reccomend this book to our female members. It's an easy read, and can be quite enlightening: Aspergirls: Empowering Females With Asperger Syndrome | AspiesCentral.com
