Hello hello~

Here's another newbie, hoping to join this community and perhaps form some interesting connections? : D I'm a 21-year-old female who lives in northern Europe, so English isn't my native language... sorry for any mistakes I may make! ^^'' I was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was six years old and it has, unfortunately, been quite a negative part of my life ever since. Difficulties in social interaction have led to clinical depression and an anxiety disorder that I'm still battling with today. It's always been hard for me to accept Asperger's as a part of me and I find it hard to see it as a positive thing, so I'm hoping that this site might help me in that regard? :3
I haven't met many Aspies in my life and even though I've had and I have friends, forming meaningful, deep connections is challenging. It'd be nice to get to know others who may share similar difficulties in life and meet people on the same wavelength. <3
My interests include music (mostly singing), ethics, Japanese pop culture, reading, writing, cozy coffee shops, traveling, video games, Disney classics, musicals, dancing... so on and so forth. : D I'm hoping to start studying social psychology and/or sociology at a university next year and dreaming of making the world slightly better with my work~

I am terrible at writing introduction posts so I'm a little nervous about posting this but... here goes?

Another northern European here, welcome!! Your story sounds very similiar to mine, I was diagnosed at around the same age and have struggled with the same. I wish you luck with making the world a better place, that's always a good thing to strive for!
