Self-Diagnosed Aspergirl and New Blogger

CherryBlossomTree
over 9 years ago

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

    Thanks for that!

    I shall read more of your blog, what I have read so far interests me, I am actually considering starting my own...

    You seem to be working through things in the best possible way, I imagine to some you are an inspiration, please keep the blog going and do promote it (even if you're not "about it"), having an audience usually provides encouragement to continue, and benefit some of who read it, so in a way promoting it may help people.

    Wanting to share you experiences to help people and provide a voice, and wanting to be famous are very different things and I haven't confused them, I don't believe that others will.

    All the best,

    Forest
