hey i'm 18 years old and was diagnosed with asperger's when i was about 9 but haven't been on medication or seen a doctor since about 13
i have been misunderstood through most of my life, most teachers thinking i'm stupid, rebellious or a difficult student such as making me go to special ed and to do reading even tho i was reading at a yr 12 level in yr 6 ,and other kids thinking i was kinda weird but i still made friends most of whom don't knowing i have asperger's.

As I've got older i have started to notice the things i do lets say different than the norm more than i did when i was younger.
i tend to get obsessed with things (mainly anime,comics,tv show,movies,books and art) and have to read/watch every thing to do with it and its kinda like nothing else matters the latest being lost i also get locked on(yes i stole that from skins) and get stuck in train of thought and cant think of anything else ,i also have compulsive habits where i fiddle with things or stand rotating back and fourth on the spot thus the nick name oscilator and stuff like bitting my nails and every time i lock a door i twist that handle at least four times to check its locked .
i also have trouble expressing my feeling and connecting with people and get depressed because i feel like i'm useless and no one understands me

sorry for the long rambling post about my life but i figured if any one understands it you guys right any way hello

Welcome,Oscilator,here. Every One is Gifted, for doing Something,It feels like to me, that You have a Specialist's knowledge in Comic Books. Donot feel ashamedof that! Alot of comic book 'Collecters' need that knowledge to find that Rare issue that they're looking for. :)
