Hello everyone! I don't have an autism diagnosis but I have been diagnosed with social anxiety, and am currently on Prozac woo-hoo! I just know I'm very socially awkward and my experiences with people on the spectrum have been that they can be a little less judgmental and more welcoming, as well as experts at their interests/hobbies! Looking to make some nerdy friends here. Bonus points if you're into anime, video games, learning Japanese, cosplay, fashion, or metal music. I also work in tech and am very LGBTQ+. I would love to chat on Discord if anyone has that. I've also been watching Love on the Spectrum on Netflix, and love it! Anyway, nice to meet everyone. :)

salutations! It seems we have quite a bit in common. 5 out of your 8 things (only things I'm not super into are cosplay and fashion) video games, specifically the Touhou Project and Xenoblade series' are my biggest special interests :D


I also used to be on prozac but decided I didn't need it so I stopped.

Welcome to WP! All I know about Portland is the TV show Portlandia which was on TV last night. It looks like it would be a cool city to visit. Less scary than the rest of the US.

Aww you seem awesome! I've heard of Tohou Project but don't know much about it besides the art is cool. And I always wanted to try the Xenoblade games! Definitely right up my alley. Do you recommend playing in a particular order?

Mostly games with a good story, RPGs, sometimes puzzle games or simulation games. I guess it's a wide variety lol. I like the Persona games a lot and I just started Jedi: Survivor recently. What about you?

I actually haven't played any...that would require friends LOL. I've been curious about Dungeons & Dragons. Can you recommend some good table-top games??

The games I like to play is:
- Fire Emblem
- Pokémon
- Legacy of Kain series (pretty old, though)
- Tachyon the Fringe (also pretty old)
- Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross
- various Star Wars games (Haven't played Survivor, but Ive played Rogue Squadron, Jedi Academy, and KOTOR)
- Lord of the Rings Online (also played Runescape and The Old Republic, but didn't like them, anymore)
