The journey through my brain

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hello fellow Steemians,

Today I became a member of steemit. I found out about this website via Reddit, or to be more specific from /r/aspergers.
With that in mind, I want to tell you a bit about myself.

I'd say the most interesting fact about me is that I have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), diagnosed at an early age and only found out about it now at 19 years. I want to pursue my proper diagnosis now and want to write about the journey through my brain and the up's and down's of having Autism.

My focus is set on psychology, science and philosophy in regards to mental illnesses, neurodiversity, psychedelics and what ever strikes me as interesting. I hope that this may help bring clarity about Autism to those who want to know it, wether a relative is affected by it, or you might suspect that you yourself may have it. Many people on the spectrum struggle with life in many ways, be it work, relationships, identity, depression and much more.

That's it for my introduction for now, thanks for reading, and if you have any questions feel free to write them and I'll try to answer as many as possible.

In regards,
kekssideoflife

Welcome @kekssideoflife, your introduction sounds very interesting. Looking forward reading more about your topics, especially psychology. I´ll follow you!

You seem very interesting aswell,I look forward reading more from you! :)

Thanks for the introduction post @kekssideoflife. I have high-functioning autism, I rather be referred to as an Aspie. I was only diagnosed about a year ago. I look forward to reading your posts. Most of my posts are focused on economics and the application of economics. I wish you all the best on Steemit.

I am not a fan of the term Aspie, since Aspergers is no longer an official diagnosis, so I prefer high-functioning autism for accuracy reasons. Thanks for reading and your critique. I am planning on doing my first post about the misconceptions about autism in general and in media, I'd be happy to hear your experiences. I wish you all the best aswell.

A big welcome to you@kekssideoflife to steemit. We really happy to have you here. We know we will enjoy a wonderful relationship with you. You are welcome agai

Thanks for the nice welcome, happy to be here!
