Hello, everyone.
I was diagnosed with Asperger's about 9 years ago and have decided to make an account here now because I only recently started to care about social interaction and want to learn some of the rules to make the process run more smoothly. I am currently studying both math and computer science at a public university and live alone in a single dorm. Other interests apart from what I'm studying would have to be music, video games and philosophy. As far as my symptoms, I'm pretty good at coping and self-care but am hopeless in starting and maintaining conversations. I also have a serious problem with loud noises and any unexpected sensory input. I can identify sarcasm and figurative language at times but I slip up and take thing literally when I shouldn't somewhat frequently.
