Greetings everyone. Still a high school student, one more year to go. Suffering depression. Not formally diagnosed, but therapist suspects with high confidence I have Asperger's or some variant. Likely INFJ.

I'm not gonna share much about myself now, just that I have a hard time making friends/connecting to people in high school or anywhere else really. Academics are easy, still learning social norms, but fitting in is so challenging, discouraging, and depressing. Sometimes I need alone time, and I may be socially conflicted at times. I may also talk a lot when I'm interested in the topic at hand.

I love worldbuilding/daydreaming. What more do you expect from a depressed teen/adult? Yet, I really want to put my ideas on paper someday.
 
Welcome advskel , your profile picture is very funny, I used to spend hours browsing 9gag a few years ago xD

Hope for the best.
