Hi!

[malu1ce]

Found it today while looking for some autistic communities where we can chat. My mum has always told me that me and my dad were autistic, but I've never taken she serious 'till recently (the truth is that I didn't even know what really was autism ngl), and now my therapist and the neuropsychologist told me that I'm probably neurodivergent, so now I'm looking for a diagnosis. Anyway, I'm from Brazil and my special interests are Japan, politics and the environment (as those topics are usually considered more "mature" than others, I can even sometimes talk and EVEN INFODUMP about them without removing the "masking"). Also, do you guys know any discord server for autistic/neurodivergent people? I'm more used to discord than to this forum, so it'd cool if there was any.

Welcome!

Most of the interactions here are on the forums, but we do have some who pop into the chat now and then.

Hi and welcome. There's a great wealth of information in these forums, just join in the conversations that seem relevant to you. Many of us here don't do chat, I don't do any social media at all and I don't even own a mobile phone, too stressful. In a forum like this we get more time to think and respond in more meaningful ways. I hope you come to like it.

It's best to avoid talking about politics too much, and the moderators will intervene and delete posts if they think you've crossed the line, but environmental topics are welcome.
