Hello!

I'm new here. I'm 57 years old, but I've never grown up. I score 47/50 on the autism quotient and 6/50 on the empathy quotient. I have an IQ of 174 and no social skills. I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome in 2015, and have intermittently been diagnosed with major depression and severe anxiety. I haven't been outside my house since February, but I don't feel lonely. I have a sense of humour.

Will that do?

  • Good question.  I think it started out as me avoiding the world by choice and then evolved into something more like Agoraphobia.  I want to leave the house and embark into a world that tolerates me.  But i really should because i'm not  a quitter. Mental health is not rational though and it's hard to just snap out of.
