Hello, I thought I would give a quick introduction as I am new here and I always feel awkward storming in somewhere without people being aware of me.

I always had the feeling I was weird/different/whatever - I'm sure I don't need to explain. Spending my teenage years recording hundreds of tapes and giving them all catalogue numbers while my (former) friends were out drinking and kissing girls and stuff; generally pissing people off by being argumentative/pedantic... and so on.
I'm fortunate enough to have a girlfriend who felt I was worth sticking with through that stuff (she says she always knew I was "special"), and her brother asked if I had Asperger's. She did some research, watched some videos and concluded that I did. It was such an incredible relief finding out there are people like me for the first time in my life. I got a diagnosis a few weeks ago and have been doing a bit more research into support and help available, so I thought I'd join up here. So er... hello.

Oh, and I'm 27, live in England and like to record music.

Hi Leafpass :)

I'm listening to your music, and looking at your pictures. I like them.
