Hello

Sunshine

Hello, I'm Chloe

I live in Scotland-ish, near it anyway.

I just managed to secure my first job after years of applying! Bit anxious as I start on Monday but hoping I'll be all right. I'm good with computers which I'm guessing is what got me my job. In free time I like drawing and playing with my daughters. Sadly I'm single now and coping with two young girls is hard work but I'm managing all right for now. I worry people at work will judge me because of my verbal communication issues but hopefully they'll be understanding and not make a comment like people have before.

I do have feelings, I just struggle to express them.

Looking forward to meeting you guys here :) 

  • Hi Chloe! Very nice to meet you.

    I loved your sentence about feelings. When I first thought that I could be autistic I told to a friend who came back with "but you seem to have feelings".

    I replied "I said autistic, not psycopathic".

  • Hi Chloe, welcome to the group.

    I often have difficulty expressing things to others, but I've enjoyed discussing things with people here and I think that has helped me to practice some conversational skills (asking questions, being proactive etc). It's also really comforting that everyone here appreciates our difficulties so I find it a little easier to talk about things I normally wouldn't. 

    What is your new job?
