Hi all! My name is Kayla, I'm 22 years old from Upstate New York. I've been diagnosed with ADD at 16 and kinda self-diagnosed with asperger's based on things I've been doing since childhood. Parental units (yes, there's more than 2, don't ask please) said they didn't want to 'put a label on me at such a young age', grrrr. I'm trying to learn how to control my harmful stims and calm my nerves and stuff, it's an ongoing process I guess. Ummmmmm, where to go, where to go go go...well, I'm going to college, this technical school thing, to get my CMA, I have 6 months left about. I've been in a steady relationship for 2.5 years, he drives me nuts sometimes but I love him; we live together with his mom living in the apartment below us. I like making jewelry, drawing clothes, painting abstract stuff, listening to music, and playing my 3DS. I don't have ANY friends like me so it would be nice to make some new ones here! So again, hello, hi, hey there!

Kayla, I live in the New York Capital District. I know what you mean not having friends that think the same way. If you have the KiK app, my username is SonicRiver. :)
