Hello Everyone!

My name is Birbal and I’m almost 27. All my life I knew that I’m a bit different from others and certainly I have different needs. I never ask for a professional help because I came from a country which is not so great developed in aspects of mental health and I didn’t have a close relationship with my family (I mean any kind of relationship...not necessarily close). However I managed to move in UK in summer of 2010 and I’m really happy with my decision.

Since September 2011 I have been in counselling therapy with a lovely and very intelligent person, trying to find answers to some of my questions. Recently she suggested that I should consider the idea researching or asking for more competent help in Asperger’s syndrome area. I found quite a lot of videos on Youtube about this subject and I felt that I might resonate with most of the symptoms. I don’t actually know if I want to go for an actual diagnose because I understand that is quite hard this process and I don’t feel like if someone give me a ‘label’ will make any difference.

I’m glad that I found this forum and I hope will be helpful in my research. Also I’m more than happy to receive any kind of feedback, advice, etc.

All the best!
Birbal
