Hi

August

Hi!

I'm new here. I was diagnosed with autism this year, in February. It was a bit of a long wait but it's brought me a lot of peace and comfort.

I spend much of my time alone, I'm very isolated as I struggle with going out and interacting with other people.

    Welcome The Fool. I think you have a lot of things to share. Sharing is caring. :)   I think it would be worth hearing this person's struggles and hopefully find a way to support them somehow.

    I think people should speak their minds, however I understand why not everybody does. If you change your mind I will listen and offer support, if wanted/needed.
    Always be true to yourself and sod everyone who thinks you shouldn't Joy

    Thanks for the luck. I need it lol.

    I thought about reiterating my own struggles but I decided not to.  It's the same story told countless times across all of existence.  I wish you luck, people like me are quietly shunned for having independent thoughts and daring to dream beyond the autistic bubble.  I'm not afraid to say the world is a stinking garbage dump and the people suck.

    Absolutely right. Always happy to listen and talk if you need

    I saw in my email inbox you wrote a message earlier. It's gone now, but, if you want to re-write it please do. I don't know if I'll be here every day but if you write me I will respond. I can't help fix anything but I can be a friend and listen. Take care x.
