How's it goin'?

I've joined because I am trying to understand myself better. A lot of stuff that describes autistic and ADHD struggles matches some of the experiences I've had that people minimized. I am also a ball of anxiety. So you might see me around. I don't care so much about the labels. I just want to feel less alone and find people that I can relate with.


To be perfectly honest, I am not sure how often I'll do more than lurking. It takes time for me to break out of my shell.
 
Welcome to the forum. I'm a ball of anxiety too right now.

People here are kind, post as much or little as you feel comfortable.
