Hi everyone. I've just joined and would like to say hi.

My name is Thomas. I've ended up being very aggarophobic and It seems to be getting worse as I get older. I've been messed about through my life and always treated as there's something wrong with me. This year I've been out the house about 15 times and most of those have been to take the black bin bags of rubbish I've accumulated for weeks/ sometimes months before I build up the courage to get out my front door. I don't know any of my neighbours (6 houses are above my house) and I've lived here for 5 years. I've heard my neighbours say I'm anti social and not normal when they've been discussing me in the landing. I've always found it very difficult to interperate written directions, and general talk I find it vey diffucult to understand what something is telling me in writing as it seems not specific or could mean multiple things. I keep my curtains closed at all times, even in summer. and I always only have a small low illuminating light. on, that would seem dark to most people. I don't like bright lighting.  My nephew has quite bad asbergers syndrome, and I see a lot of his traits in myself and his dad (my brother)  This is the first time I've thought to look on the internet for a chat room for people on the autism spectrum. I'd just like to say hi to everyone and thanks for this site being here.

  • I have read your thread with interest tonight. I really hope you get what you need in life.  It's never too late to start again, there's always hope. Being that maybe things do or dont need to change, but find who you really are and acceptance of yourself.We are a varied bunch here. I'm sure you'll pick up one or two nuggets along the way. Best of luck.

  • Hi out of step, And thank you for your kind thoughts and words. Yes, I hope for some rejuvenation at some point. I have already gained so much hope just interacting with you folk on here. And I'm sure I'll learn a lot from you folk, just listening and getting to know you all. Ty so much.
