Hey everyone, hope you're all having a wonderful day! :heart: I'm Aoife (pronounced ee-fah). I'm 22 years old from Ireland. I was diagnosed with Autism and ADHD last year. I'm still in the process of coming to terms with my diagnosis.

As for my interests, I like learning languages. I can speak Spanish and I'm currently learning German. I'm a big fan of anything Eurovision. I'm studying early childhood education to hopefully pursue my dream of becoming a preschool teacher.

Thanks for having me and I'm looking forward to getting to know you all :)

Hello and welcome from across the pond! I'm sure you'll find some folks on here who will help you come to terms of your diagnosis if need be.
