Hello, all who are curious enough to actually read this lol
FederationJunkie here (just call me Teddy) and I am a, shall we say, Free Thinker from Central California. Yes, I am diagnosed with Asperger's Disorder, however do not acknowledge it as a disability. Rather, it is a difference from our "normal" brethren in humanity, and I find the fact that I am labeled as a "disabled person" as nothing less than an insult. As for my presence in this forum, I am curious as to how others cope with this *ahem* "impairment" that we all suffer from, and wish to further understand this thing we call Life... but enough of my ranting (I understand it is typical amongst us lol), if anyone has actually read through this without falling asleep, let me just say that I am looking forward to bouncing opinions with others who are "impaired" with AS. Keep on keepin' on out there, all! :D
