Hello everyone. I've decided to join these forums in an effort to find out more about myself, and to mingle ideas around. I handle everything in my life in an apathetic, lazy, meek kind of way. So I generally don't do anything if I can live another day, hence I've never gotten an official diagnosis as to my condition. I consider myself to have a little bit of everything, really. I feel I have a mild form of OCD, certain things just upset me too much...it's not really structured around any specific numbers or visualizations, but if something is bothering me I absolutely have to change it. I also constantly have repetitive thoughts.
What else? I've lived my life in a daze for as long as I can remember, keeping to my unrealistic fantasies. Suffice to say it's skewered my view of the world and how things work, so I've naturally begun being frustrated at my shortcomings. I also have an aversion to eye contact and usually can't keep a conversation going. I also have an outstandingly aloof aura to me; even if I'm genuinely interested in something, I probably seem very bored. I'm also aware I stare a little too intently at people on the rare occasions I do make eye contact. I offset that by flitting my eyes around in what I deem 'okay'. As though I'm busy, I suppose.
I've lived in my own head for quite some time, too...
Anyway, bottom line is, I don't really know if I have Asperger's or any other kind of mental condition, but I definitely understand how people who can't get a break in relationships and life in general feel. So I'm looking foward to hearing from you all. Thanks for having me!
And apologies for this muddled introduction. Couldn't think of much to say without sounding atrociously whiny, so I just chose this incredibly flowery method.

Welcome to WP, Decorequiem 
Whether you have AS or not, you obviously share several traits with us. You can certainly find out more about them here, and contribute your own thoughts... or you can just join in the general bedlam like the rest of us
