Hi!
Diagnosed in 2021, still finding my feet, and decided joining this community might be helpful :-)
I'm 24, female, full-time work and tired of all the masking, just got married in October, still figuring out things about being autistic, making sense of how that affected when I was younger and trying to let go. I think that's the hardest part as I grieve my childhood and the things I missed out on, don't have many friends, feeling lonely, but at the same time I don't like people.
It feels like being an alien on another planet and then trying to fit in.
But anyway, enough of that. Some things I like...
- Horror movies (my favourite is 28 Days Later)
- Gaming (I'm a PC gamer), currently playing Palworld and Resident Evil 4 remake, favourite is VTM: Bloodlines.
- I love cheese
- Researching conspiracy theories, mysteries, spiritualism, unsolved things, aliens (all the weird stuff)
Things I don't like...
- People
- Oranges (so gross)
- Crowds and busy places
- Big spoons (little spoons make food last longer)
Nice to meet you all :)
