Hello all,

I'm a Dutch girl who's been diagnosed with Asperger's in December 2014; very glad to know why I've always been a social outcast. I've been looking for Dutch forums for autistics, but couldn't find anything proper so I hope to find more people to get to know here.

And at least I can talk about life with other Aspies, which is something I really need right now. I'm tired of always being the odd one out, it'd be nice to talk to my 'kin' so I hope I'll meet some people through these forums.

My warm greetings to you all! :)

Welcome! Good to see someone finding themselves out. I'm newly diagnosed as well. I self-diagnosed in March, and I'm just waiting on the results of my professional assessment (not that I don't already know the diagnosis). The more you discover who you are and why, the more tools you have to better yourself!

Hey sorry for bumping an old thread but I forgot I registered here :)

My interests are very broad, but the main ones are writing, spirituality, politics, art, photography and cooking.

Plenty of material for discussion.
