Hello,

This is my first post here. I just discovered this site a few minutes ago. I have been diagnosed with Asperger's about 25 years ago, and it has been a hindrance in my life.

Frankly, I am making this post from a mental health crisis center, and I am desperately trying to find local resources before I get discharged. I am in the Seattle/Tacoma area, and I do not have a clue where the first place to look for help is. I do know that I no longer feel safe living alone, that much is for sure.

So, my first post here, and I am already asking for help in knowing what to look for and where to find it. Go figure.

Thanks in advance to anybody who is willing to help out with this, and feel free to use the PM function if you want to.

I don't have much time on this computer at the moment, but I will be checking it on and off the next couple of days. The plan that the doctors here have is to transfer me to a psychiatric ward in the near future, where I won't have Internet access, but I'll have it again once I get out of there. I am tired of the isolation. It's tearing me apart inside. I may have Asperger's, but I am not happy with solitude, and my social awkwardness seems impossible for me to overcome.

So, I hope that others here can shed some light on how to deal with this situation. Once again, thanks in advance.

Welcome! I dig the username.

Thanks for the welcomes!

Sorry about the tone of my first post. Now, I am going to tell you all more about myself.

I love anime. I love video games. I love manga. I love movies. I love music. If it's a flashy media, I probably love it.

I am a 33yo male in the Tacoma area. I have been diagnosed with Asperger's back when I was 5, and I have had several other diagnoses since then until it went right back to the Asperger's. The most hilarious diagnosis I got was "Pervasive Developmental Disorder", which pretty much said that the doctors had no idea what they were dealing with when it came to me.

My family has bullied me pretty much nonstop throughout my life because of my autism, and I am struggling to not crumble under their fists to this very day. That's life, I suppose, and life is not fair at all.

Well, I am here now, and I hope I can be a somewhat helpful member to others here. Once again, thanks for the welcomes.
