Hi I'm Shelby, I'm 16 year old girl. I'm from the United States. I've been diagnosed with aspergers since I was about 11.
I hope to get to know all of you soon!

I am glad you found out about your Aspergers early instead of later like me. I'm 29, and I wasn't diagnosed with High Functioning Autism until I was 27 (you can read my introduction if you like, it's a long post though). I've been living with my father the last 12 years, and sit in front of my PC most of the day (though I've been only recently been trying to change that this week, but it's really hard for me to do things by myself). I'm still at the point where I really do need someone else to help me out with things. I honestly just cannot do it by myself. Anyway, since I've never really had health insurance, and my father never really having the money, I was never tested for Autism until 2 years ago.

I sincerely hope that you are able to get the help you need for Aspergers. It's not any fun being without professional (or family) help. Fear can make you not enjoy life (depression, too).
