Hi everyone!

Squeak

Hi everyone!
I’m Squeak, and I’m still learning everything there is to know about autism. I was diagnosed this October just gone.

I’m naturally quite shy, especially around new people, but once I warm up I’m friendly, chatty in my own quirky way, and a bit eccentric (in a fun way). I’ve always felt a little different from everyone else, and while that’s something I’ve struggled with I’m trying harder to embrace it more and see it as a strength rather than something to hide.

I love music, reading, and playing games — they’re my comfort zones and the things that help me unwind. I’ve also recently gotten into drawing and painting. I’m honestly terrible at it so it's something I half enjoy but half hate.

I’m here to meet people who understand and learn more about autism.

  • Hello and welcome! I am also very shy at first but when I settle I can be chatty. In fact if I’m nervous I can be super chatty lol! I’m a big gamer myself, mainly into family friendly Nintendo games but recently got into the sims 4. Also a huge Simpsons hit and run gamer! What games do you like?

    Hey, thanks for the welcome! I'm like that as well when I'm nervous or scared I get super chatty but it's all nonsense talk like I just gabble about anything. 

    I like Nintendo games too. Do you have any favourites you like to play? Also a big Sims 4 fan-I bought the new adventure awaits pack last month and have been having a lot of fun with it.

    Hit & Run is such a fun game! It's so old but so much fun. Did you know if you play it on Christmas Day the opening theme changes to a Christmas one? It's like this fun little easter egg the devs put in. I always load it on Christmas Day just to see it lol Laughing

    And another game I've been playing a lot lately is Fable 3 on the Xbox 360. it's pretty old now but I've been enjoying it. I go through phases of playing new and old games.

    What about you? Any favourites?
