Maybe I shouldn't have typed as much as I should have. I am Catherine and am basically trying to get used to this site. I have figured it out most part though.

I am on here to talk to people with aspergers and/or autism. I believe, I have it and so does my psychiatrist but am not diagnosed.

I found this site after searching for forums and aspergers together. I signed up but didn't really jump into talking since I was given different reactions about wanting the diagnoses and such. Plus I was nervous at what to say or how people would react.

But I am back and want to join in posts on here. I can't wait to start.

Again, sorry about the other posts about introducing myself. After reading other people's introductions, I thought I would just keep it simple in this one.

Hope everyone's December isn't too freezing, and going well.

hi Catherine, welcome to WP!

WP is a brilliant online community and i hope that you are able to feel comfortable here - WP is probably the best online community i have ever had involvement with :thumleft:

ultimately the choice to pursue diagnosis is yours alone, i would say that in any case you will find support here... so no need to be nervous.

...and my December is just fine thanks, blue skies and the odd evening summer storm. :) hehe

Hi pippilngstkngpr - welcome to WP!

Your profile shows you have a lot of creative interests. I think you'll find that there are lots of musicians, artists & writers here. (I was a professional musician - percussion - for almost half my life.) What kind of music do you like?

December here in Minnesota started out frigid - brrrr! But we are now in the middle of a heatwave - highs almost up to the freezing point. =D
