New here

Hi. Just found this forum. Over the past couple of months I finally came to a conclusion and self-diagnosis that I have Asperger's. I understand the view some may have of a self-diagnosis, but I put a ton of research, thought, and reflection on the past into coming to that conclusion. The past couple of months have been interesting, to say the least. I've at least been able to finally put some words and greater understanding to things I couldn't quite pin down before. Anyways, I hope to learn more here, so I can grow and adjust with this new knowledge. I've had my fair share of tough times over the years, and dealt with some terrible stuff, but thankfully have turned out as well as could be expected I think.

Hi welcome! I'm new too, I joined few days ago. I've never felt so welcomed and accepted more than here. It's amazing!

People here understand our struggle like socialization, for example. Something most people take it for granted, and most can't understand my struggle, or made fun of it.

Here there's a lot of respect, acceptance and understanding, at least of what I've read. Take your time if you want somethings changing, or not, it's ok being you and your choices that make you confortable.

Anyway, I've rambled a lot. Welcome friend. I hope you can live better after reading things here, I sure did.

See ya

Precisely my story as well. I just got here last month. Lots of friendly and helpful people allowing me to figure out this lifelong mystery.

I think there are plenty of self-diagnosed people here (and all over). Welcome!

Hi! You're in the right place I self-diagnosed my AS over a year ago, it's a gut feeling and you somehow just know. Got the official diagnosis now too, but it's not necessary for everyone
