Self-Diagnosed Aspergirl and New Blogger

Hello NAS Community members,

I'm CherryBlossomTree, Cherry for short, deliberately staying anonymous as that helps me feel a bit more secure for the time being.

Over the last couple of months, I came to the realisation that I may be on the Asperger's end of the Autism Spectrum and am on a journey of self discovery.  I'm seeking a professional diagnosis for validation and to help explain my "quirks", as I call them.

To help me in this journey, I've started a blog, as I've come to find that resources are pretty limited in relation to Aspergirls, and felt that it might be helpful to add my voice to the Autism community.

My blog is at http://iammyownexperience.com - pop by and say hi, or just read to your heart's content!  It's still relatively new, so it shouldn't take long to read at present.

It's a bit scary putting myself out there, but keeping myself anonymous for the time being is helping to minimise my anxiety a bit.

I am finding more and more blogs on WordPress and hope to meet more likeminded individuals there and here.

thanks for taking the time to check things out x

  • Thank you ForestP!!That's very kind of you.  It has been an arduous and at times stressful process, but the relief felt at the end has been immeasurable.  I wish you luck in your pursuit and if you have any questions, I'm happy to help however I can.

    And I'll admit, I didn't count the date calculation myself... I went to timeanddate.com's Date Calculator.  If anything, I included the days because they were both even ending on a zero... I'm a bit preoccupied with numbers.
