Seaweed Report post Posted June 13, 2008 Hi everyone I'd prefer to go by the name "Seaweed" here. I'm a 22 year old female, diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome three years ago. I've not really been an active member of an ASD forum before as I find it quite difficult to talk about my AS experiences / thoughts online, but I think if I can get over my shyness / apprehensiveness, hopefully I will find being here beneficial. I've had a quick browse around the forum and already I've found quite a few useful things. So... yeah. Hi! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
