Hello everyone. I'm new here and i thought i could get some love and care in a place that understands me.

I'm 27 years old, male, living in Brazil with minimum wage. Diagnosed with Asperger's. Therapy is expensive, Meds are expensive, and people don't seem to want to attach to me for more than strictly necessary. I feel alone and emotionally depeleted. I tend to get triggered by what seems like everything, i'm getting depressive again, my anxiety is getting worse.

So overall, an average day for me.

I'm sorry if i'm touchy today. I just wanted to set my foot in the door and see if i can get some positive human interaction instead of talking with the characters i have in my head as always. I hope i can have here what i don't have in the real world.

Welcome to Wrong Planet. I am glad you are here. You will probably find people here who can relate to you. Many of us have anxiety, depression and other problems. If you want to post something you are sensitive about, try posting in the Haven.

I am a sensitive person all around. I just tend to get lost on the bad things and i need some comforting, either by my own or by others. But thanks for the tip, i'll check it out.

It seems to be a diverse place. I feel a bit anxious with it but i guess that's normal. Thanks for the welcomes!

I don't think you need to be anxious but I agree it is probably normal when you do something new.

Note: If a conversation on WP does make you anxious, please don't leave the Planet, just leave that conversation.

It already kind of happened but i guess it was inevitable. Thanks anyway

Sorry to hear that; glad you're still here.

Just remember...a lot of people here are Autistic (including me!) and that could be a recipe for awkward communication. (Oh, and "If you've met one Autistic you've met one Autistic"...we're all different!) Patience is a virtue.

There are many nice parts of Brazil. What is your favorite part?

The Pantanal seems like an interesting place.
