I'm knew to these forums in particular. I was only diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome around 4 months ago, but was diagnosed with Depression 2+ years ago. I'm 15 and live in Northamptonshire in England.

Being diagnosed with Aspergers late is a very tough thing. By then, it's usually too late. For me it was as I was already out of school...suffering from Depression and unable to go out in public by myself - for fear of meeting people and having to communicate with them. I have been let down by the educational system which I think must go for a lot more of you on the forums.

I'm coming on here to try and manage some frustrations; to maybe vent and to also give advice.

If you'd like to know more about me, please visit my blog (check my profile for homepage), or email me or private message me or whatever.

That's it really. It's late and I don't really know what to say so am just saying hi.

EDIT: My blog can be found at http://www.mikkyh.info/ or more specifically, the posts page at http://www.mikkyh.info/?page_id=5 - or just click here.

I've been diagnosed five years ago with Asperger's, but I still feel like a newb in everything, in spite of my apparent competence in some things.
This would be my first post in my entire time here.
And yes, I agree with jpeg about the time that is given to us. I cannot chose my time, only what I do with it.
I'm looking forward to meeting new people, online and off.

I'm no good at pure HTML/CSS websites - I always like to have a Content Management System available because they're quick and can make nice looking website's without too much effort.

Don't worry too much, as long as you can read it, and you like what you write... It will do.
