Welcome to wrong planet

I have Aspergers and I am highly functioning, so my struggles might not exactly fit yours, but I have a lot of anxiety as I am sure the majority of people here do as well.
The thing I like to do here is ask a ton of questions and get support from others. My wife is great and she is my main sounding board, but there are some things I cant ask her so I come here.

I hope we can help you and that you feel welcome here.

PS - this may sound trite, but it is not a typical hi in new because each of us are unique and you bring something different from anyone else, something that we all need (definitely not a neurotypical "hi im new")

Hello, welcome to Wrong Planet! I'm glad that coming here makes you feel better. It's a good place.

As Bald-Accountant says, just feel free to ask questions, and you're sure to get some answers - although it might not be immediately. People here are generally very friendly and helpful. If you take a look at the 'Forums' section, you'll find that most topics are covered, but if you're not sure where to post, try 'General autism discussion'. There is also a place to ask help from the moderators. You can also send private messages to other members - just click on their avatar to find a link to this.

Enjoy yourself!
