Hello, I just wanted to start off saying I have Classic Autism not Asperger's. People say I am a rare and miracle case (I still don't know just how rare it is for someone with classic autism to get to where I am) In real life you would never know I had it unless you knew me for a while =)

I am grateful that I have found this forum full of people that are going through the same problems and trails that I am. Unless you are on the spectrum yourself I believe only people under the spectrum can truly understand whats going on. I like autism, it does has some positive and negatives but I wouldn't give it up for nothing. I hope to get to know you all well, I am very excited to hear from all you. =D I am 21 by the way.

Hello ClassicAutism, welcome home to WrongPlanet!

There are a lot of adults with autism here. Some of us went through our whole lives with out knowing it, either! I hope you find people you like to express yourself to, as I have here, through the years. It can become a home with the most perfect sort of people, those that aren't near you and will leave at the flick of a button. :)

Merle
