Hi. I'm new.
I finally went to a psychologist to get an official diagnosis. I needed that for myself because I always knew something was wrong and having faked being a human for my entire life I just wanted someone to tell me I wasn't normal.

The guy gave me the diagnosis "Personality disorder not otherwise specified, high grade of alexithymia and borderline aspergers" (apparently I was too intelligent, understood sarcasm and used my hands to much when I spoke to get the official aspergers diagnosis in addition to the rest).

It's quite nice to find a forum to be on, as I don't have anyone else to talk to about this as my family, colleagues and the few friends I see once every two months or less, only know the fake me (there are so many fake me, lol, got so many different roles that I play), and I doubt I'm gonna tell them as they would then find out that the me they know isn't me at all.

At least now I know there is a reason why I've tried and failed so many times to be a real person.

I've only briefly looked at this forum before, but I hope there are likeminded people here..!
