Well I'm newly diagnosed with Asperger's and don't know much about mysely or anything good to put in here anyway. I am also diagnosed with adult adhd so I'm pretty confused about who to talk to. Most all of my friends don't understand when I get tired or stressed that I pull into myself so I'm terrible at having a social life. I'm 25 no kids and on the brink of a divorce due to all this so I guess I'm mad too. I wouldn't blame anyone for not responding to this I guess I just needed to vent. Thanks if you read this.

Welcome to wrong planet! I'm glad you found us.

ADD/ADHD seems to often be comorbid with Asperger's. I'm sure you will find many here who understand what that can do to you.

I hope you find us to be an open and welcoming group. Post anytime you feel like it in any thread. Read all you want. Its a flexible site...just use it however feels right to you.

Again, welcome.

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

You don't sound mad at all, not there is such a thing as "madness" really. We're all different and one mans madness is another mans sanity.

You're quite welcome to vent here, many of us have been through or are going through very similar things.

Good to have you here!

Hi naenae!

Welcome! I think you will find supportive folks and a good place to vent here at WP. I hope things work out for you and that you will be able to find some good opportunities.

It can be very hard to cope when you get overloaded and difficult for others to understand the need for down time....best wishes!

Suilad. Kitchen is third door to the right... next door leads to the corridor, which has the game room. I suggest you go check that out.

No, really, welcome to WP. Hope you enjoy your stay.

You have the same problems as me, and I'm also ADHD with AS. My family well never understad me, and I accept that because I don't care.

I sit in the corner facing into the cafe area... by the potted palms. There is always a spare seat here, why not join me for a coffee sometime?
