Hi, my name is Grace. I'm a seventeen year old American girl, informally suspected to be autistic for five years, formally diagnosed with ASD for a few months. I think an online community like this is a really cool idea. I'm glad to be here, and it's nice to meet you all!!
For most of my childhood I just felt totally different and wrong, but knowing I'm not wrong, and that there are other people like me, has really reassured me in life.
Ok I don't know what to say, so here's a penguin fact! The Snares Penguins who live in New Zealand eat a ton of krill. 60% of their diet is krill! That's different from their close relatives the Fiordland Penguins, who mostly eat little squids.
