I am Wren. Hi.

I'm here because I don't make friends easily, have trouble communicating with people in real life, but it's easier through a computer. I can write decently, which is far better than I converse verbally.

I mostly avoid people. Of the few people in my life I do talk to, few of them know I have AS, and none of them know anything about AS anyhow. But I still get treated so differently from how I see other people treated.

I do want to have friends, but it's so hard to, especially when they don't understand me anyhow.

So, anyways, that's why I'm here. That and because I'm still learning about AS and want bottomless info about it.

Welcome to WP! I find it much easier to communicate by computer than verbally, but that really works for me. Hope you like it here!

Well, you are certainly not alone there.... I'm like that too in many ways.... But I do try once and a while to try and socialize outisde which works but then I feel uncomfortable at times and feel like to retreat.

Oh and anyways, Welcome to Wrongplanet :D:D
