If rain can go away can mr. anxiety leave my head?
Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum! Please just call me Gummii. I'm just a 13 yr old who's in many fandoms, loves birds, and has a artistic talent 
I first learned about aspergers mainly from the book 'Mockingbird', a book that is of the perspective from a girl with aspergers that is trying to understand empathy and grief for her brother's death.
My school diagnosed me with aspergers syndrome when I was in 2nd Grade, and even gave my mom papers/reports about it so she could try to officially diagnose me with it by a doctor. I have found out about this very recently since my mom didn't think I'd understand when I was younger and my father was terrified that I'd get bullied for it so I was never in special classes or the sort, I only have a school therapist for my social anxiety. Looking more into this, I definitely have signs of it. I have:
A very passionate interest for odd things that I love (1998 furbies and alpacassos as examples of passions I have)
A hard time with eye contact when talking with new people
I've shown a remarkable artistic talent from a young age (apparently this is common with autistic kids?)
I gather a ton of information for things I'm interested in
Can't allow different food touching each other and can't eat food with weird textures
Can't stand certain textures and feelings (which makes it hard for me with wearing certain things)
Sensitive to most loud noises
I notice small details that other people wouldn't notice
Have anxiety
Have more advanced vocabulary and intelligence than others my age (I knew how to read before I entered kindergarden when noone else knew how to in my classes, knew definitions of complex words, better academically than other students, could read 8th grade books when I was in 5th, etc.)
and probably a few other symptoms that I missed, still researching about it ^^
Luckily as of now it does not seem to be severe, as I behave "normally" like any other student at my school besides my symptoms, I have groups of friends, I understand empathy and I'm doing very well despite having no help for it like special classes or a therapist, I don't believe I'll be taking anything for it since my aspergers doesn't seem to be affecting me badly. Though it seemed that it was much worse when I was younger, when I had more obvious symptoms and disruptive. It'll be great to meet more people on here too! ^u^
