Hey my name is Nils.

I'm 22 and I've got diagnosed with Aspergers about 2 month ago. Now it's like everyday is an eyeopener, seeing how my life looks like behind the curtains.
It kinda feels good to know it and to know I'm not that weird as I thought. On the other hand it was a pretty bitter pill to swallow for me.

It would be nice to get to know some people. Talk to some people who say something else than "I can imagine that it's hard for you", because that doesn't really help me.
Maybe even meet up with some of you who are in the Netherlands. :)

Hi Nils! Welcome to Wrong Planet! Check out the many interesting and helpful forums here. It was a great relief when I found out I have Asperger's Syndrome. Not knowing why I was different, and having suffered bullying for my differences for several decades was very stressful. Researching Asperger's has also helped me to understand my problems better. I think that helps me deal with it better, too, so I am glad that I now know what is wrong with me. :D I think your own research will help you, too, and WP is a good place to start. :D

You are among friends here at WP! :D
