Hello I'm Emmy

Emmy
over 3 years ago

Thought I would introduce myself, I am Emmy, I have just turned 29, I was diagnosed with autism today and thought I would see how this community is. I do not have a friend group and was interested in maybe making a few new friends.

Umm I like quite a lot of things cats, collecting oddities, DnD, anime, gaming, arts and crafts, viking history, weird music, and nature to name a few. Ooo and I just got into 3D modelling. I am an INFJ / INTJ, Libra, non binary (she/her/they/them pronouns) I'm a bit of a shut in and an agoraphobe but I thought I would give this a go. 

Feel free to message me. I cant guarantee a quick response, please don't be offended.

    I'm not really interested in what my dad has to offer tbh. He just generally is not a nice person and a lot of my issues I suffer with today are because of him so I dont think his "support" will be welcome (he really isnt the supportive type in general) 

    Yes my daughter is the same, a very happy aspie. In her own little world and very comfortable with herself and her interests. Hard working on things that she is interested in and just generally pleasant to be around. I was very much the same when I was a kid but unfortunately lots of trauma came my way and moulded my mental health to what it is today, a mess haha. 

    I do not have a partner and all previous partners where all pretty awful towards me especially during meltdowns / shutdowns/ burn outs etc. So I found it best to be on my own. 

    Oh of course I have downsides haha I am a shut in, agoraphobe who has a lot of struggle functioning regular day time tasks and generally looking after myself. I have yet to find someone who handles that appropriately and without causing more trauma haha. Until I do I will probably remain single. 

    I will look into them, thank you ^_^
