My name is Yoshie777. I was diagnosed with AS in 1997 and was recently diagnosed with Dysthymia (Chronic Depression). I was an active member from 2007 through 2008. I decided for a time to stop posting because I wanted to attempt to live a life without AS. However, I've realized that AS is a part of me just like the glasses I wear (my former Psychology professor came up with that analogy). I am currently 24 years old and I have been out of school for 2 years now. My life is changing right and left. Now, I'm a part of a non-profit outreach and I'm also seeking employment through my state's DVR program. Right now, I am in the process of moving to a new house and trying to start my life all over again. I have decided to reach out to WP again and give this place another shot. I hope that I can be a benefit to all of you out there and I pray that soon I will be able to freely and easily make some TRUE friends out there and improve my social situation. I am glad to return and start over anew. If you wish to reach out, you are welcome to PM me or continue posting. Thank you for listening and again, it's good to return and reach out to those like me!
