Hello

Hi, my name is River, I am 29  (30 on Xmas eve) i am transgender (she/her) I was diagnosed when I was 13 with Autistic Spectrum Disorder and I live in Southwest Devon in Exeter, I enjoy playing video games, drawing, colouring, stimming, singing to music, sometimes playing guitar, but cant play it for long due to having a short attention span. I am mostly introverted but I am still open to meeting new people and making new friends, I recently signed up for this and decided to finally embrace and accept and learn to live with my autism instead of pretending I do not have it and have meltdowns more often than I would if I didn't stim for a while or anything like that, due to sensory overload. 

My favourite colour is purple and I spend a lot of time watching youtube , I am anxious while writing this as I do not really know if I am just rambling or whether im making any sense but still, I have problems oversharing so I am wary of that,  I am a nerdy person and often quote games and movies that iv'e seen to avoid awkward situations or feeling uncomfortable. 

I am always happy to make new friends and meet new people Slight smile

Thanks for reading

River ~

  • Yeah, I still delve into a bit of Skyrim now and again. The Napoli was huge, I was there when they were salvaging it. They put the anchor to the ship in front of The Sea Shanty in Branscombe, it's huge. A lot of containers washed up, I've seen the pictures in The Dolphin in Beer. The skies there are magnificent on clear nights, I can barely see anything here at night, so when I do get down there, I spend a lot of time looking up. When they had the Peresids shower in 2009, it was stunning. You could see all the meteors. I sat out all night drinking beers on Beer Head, lol, watching it all. You just don't realise how much is up there sometimes! The yellow haze of the city lights is a real pisser sometimes! I totally agree the country is where it's at!
