Well, hello. I'm really lousy at introductions.

So my real name is Isabelle, I been busy trying to live a normal life until a few months ago when I accidentally stumbled upon Autism and a few clicks away was Aspergers Syndrome. That -> :shocked: was how I looked whilst reading about the symptoms. Kind of funny because I never fitted in anywhere, growing up was hell I tried to fit in with the "normal" people - fail, the goths - fail, and I was too much of an oddball to fit in with the loners/geeks/outcasts.. Now I have a place where all of my strangeness fits and it's epic. I don't, yet, have an official diagnosis, I'm currently on a waiting list.

So (again, but 'so' is a nice word to start a sentence with). Anyway, I'm currently 23 years of age. I have no job and I live at home. Not a funny situation, but I have a really nice family, so it's okay.

My special interest at this time (it changes, usually lasts between 3 months to 5 years) is jigsaw puzzles and hoarding information about Aspergers Syndrome. It's gone so far that I kind of want to break my leg or whatever just so I can do this awesomely large jigsaw puzzle on 24.000 bits. I'm not going to hurt myself so I could do it...although it would be so fun. The jigsaw part. Moving on.

Computers are a big part of my life as well, I'm able to find information and gain access to people everywhere. And find documentaries. I love documentaries, my favorite website is DocumentaryStorm. Please don't freak out now. But I have a huge interest as to why some people become serial killers, why they behave the way they do and what not. Behavioral analysis is fun. I kind of creep myself out at times when I'm awake late at night watching a documentary about for example the B.T.K or Zodiac.

*recently erased joke, that wasn't funny* Sorry.

When I'm alert and not tired I have this "censor" block in my head that deletes the absolutely worst jokes I come up with. When I'm tired though that crumbles and I sometimes say things that I don't mean or I mean but wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Since I have a black, sarcastic kind of humor things I say are taken seriously by others a lot. That's not good.

I think I can be a fun person to be around if I'm not stressed or anxious or afraid. Which I usually are around people, which in turn makes me not a funny person IRL. Which is sad. And I think I'm rambling now so I better end this. Bye.
 
Welcome

There are people here that are mad on cereal killers so you wont be alone ; ]

Hey, you can post that joke again if you like, we will let you know if it isn't funny. Was it about a killer cause I'm dying to hear it now LOL
 
Hi, thank you :)
Other people that are interested in serial killers, awesome. I've tried to mention it to some NT's over the years, but the reactions are usually something like :wtf: And then they slowly walk away from me.
Ah, the joke. I think I kind of forgot.
 
Hey, welcome! You seemed almost self-concious during your intro, dont be! Everyone here is so nice.
 
My obsession is with organized religion which isn't far from serial killers so I can totally relate. That and the occasional Jerry Springer show. Maybe there should be a spectrum from those three things.
