My name is Liz, and I am 20 years old. I enjoy blogging, math and a few other things.
Before completing the tests for my diagnostics (I was really young, so I don't remember), I had to move, and that stopped the entire process even though all that was needed were a few more visits.
I recently learned from my mother I have Tourette's Syndrome and Asperger's Syndrome, so this is all new to me.
I'm happy, though, because I now know why I'm not like everyone else, why I don't fit it, and why I can want to do something all I want and still not be able to do it. I can't make eye contact with people, and I hate talking about feelings. Talking about feelings is just ... "ew" to me. I can't handle it when people start crying, and I've been called cold-hearted.
I've browsed around the Internet in hopes of learning more about these two syndromes - and perhaps myself. I'm so used to it being just me who is like this.
I don't think my dad and step mom know, and I don't think my grandmother cares, either. But I've been contemplating whether I should join this board or not, and I finally decided to.
I'm hoping I will be able to fit in in this community. :3
