Introducing myself

Ronin

Active Member
Hello everyone! I'm new and not really sure what to say, I never sign up or post anywhere. I have problems with getting attention so I just never post anywhere. I go by Ronin, which was a samurai in Japan without a master. I always liked history, math, and science.

I'm sorry if my introduction doesn't make sense, I'm finding it very hard not to ramble. I'm 36 and after 37 more days I'll be 37 =). I live in Tennessee and love music, movies, t.v. series. I am self-diagnosed. I really don't like being self-diagnosed, but it's unavoidable. I also have a daughter and I'm a stay at home dad.

Not sure what else to say, it took me about 2 hours to get to this point. lol
 
Welcome @Ronin,

This is a very supportive place. You can participate as much as you want, just read and use the available resources or start a thread or a blog. It can be whatever you want to make of it.
 
Hi and welcome. Your introduction sounds fine, it's hard to know what to put isn't it? It's good that you are here, lots of us only come here to post although some are more varied. I don't post anywhere else regularly. But this is a friendly place mostly where people understand one another which for many of us feels unusual! I hope you enjoy it here and find it useful and supportive.

Thanks for the welcome, I will be posting for sure. I'm just not sure where to go about it, so many questions. I haven't ever talked anyone like me, if I have they mask so good I cant tell. So I'm definitely looking forward to it.
 
welcome to af.webp
 
Hi and Welcome @Ronin

Do hang around in here for a bit and get to know us. Looking at the threads, either older or current, might give you some insight into how life is for folk on the Spectrum.
 
That's my nickname IRL! Welcome to the forum, hope you find it an informative and useful place!
