Hiya! As the title said, I'm autistic and diagnosed last year and I really struggled in high school as I'm sure many neurodivergent people will understand and really I'm just looking to talk to people about their experiences with autism, how you guys make friends, and keep them (that's a big struggle for me the past couple years as my depression has been horrible due to the autism) and sensory issues. Anything really. I do feel pretty alone as in my day-to-day life I tend to stay in a lot I think because I feel its safe, and id love to know if someone else has this too. Thank you, I'm really looking forward to talking to someone.
I think it may be worth perusing a pen-pals thread over in the adult autism section, I’ll give you a mention over there and you can have a look, there is a older sister that is looking to find a pen pal for her younger sister..:)
I’ve bumped it up in the thread, though I can’t mention you, because ‘abbie’ is too common a username.. NAS88507 this should be an alternate way of getting to the thread..:)
Oh this is brilliant! This helps massively, thank you so much!
