New to site

[Sheria]

Hi..I'm new here
And someone in my family sent me this website. Im trying to navigate around it but I'm here. I often feel so isolated and alone. I'm not very discerning in protecting myself. My social skills suck and I have tried and tried to learn the subtleties to no avail but have come to accept it..I changed my attitude. Just wanting to introduce myself on this site and reach out some..thanks

Hi Sheria and welcome,
Many of us feel the sense of isolation and loneliness, you speak of. Fear not, as you can reach out to any one of us, or all of us, in seeking comfort. Knowing your not alone in your condition, will ease some of the burden.
Cheers

Welcome to AspiesCentral,

Relax, let me take your suitcase... Oh and here take a cookie! (I finally retrieved the cookies back from the thieves that are King_Oni and Vanilla!)

Refreshments are also available at the bar!

Any person with Aspergers Syndrome does feel neglect and rejected by peers. It is not uncommon. I can tell you with my experiences I feel the exact same way. It's our thought processes that spark off trouble to another peer. However, our quirkiness and our special interests define aspies as a whole.

I can tell you that I find it hard when to say something, and how it could affect the other person. Often when we get told to do something, we take it literally, even if it's meant as a joke.

It's not uncommon to feel that the way you do. But with enough support, aspies can usually work on their social skills and learn to manage certain social events. Although there is no fix or cure for autism.

The main threads we are at are "How are you feeling today" and "Word Association Game". You can also create threads in the designated sub-forums. And there is a live chat too!

Hope you enjoy your time here at AspiesCentral. We are very welcoming and talkative about our day-to-day problems that we face. I hope that you feel supported and included in this amazing community.

Oh don't get me started on this. I didn't realize the hot dog stand would cause so much aggravation outside of AspiesCentral.

Of course, I am using this in a jokingly sense.

Welcome to the forums, Sheria! Jordan and Turk are real goofbutts, as you can tell. But I'm glad you found us. Hopefully we can be of help to you and provide useful support. Changing your attitude is the best thing you can do--as many here have realized. You work on what you can, but accept both your limitations and your gifts.

Oh wyv, you never cease to amaze me with your sense of humour and whit.

And yes, don't feel threatened by goofbutts, we have moral rights you know! - Everyone knows that I like a laugh and a joke sometimes. And sometimes I do feel the need to help and provide support with day to day journeys and problems that you may face.

So happy that we have a community where the lowest form of whit, can spark off good relationships with peers. You lot are amazing!
