I am new here

[Nick_Elixir]

Hi, I am new here. I have Asperger's Syndrome and Social Anxiety. I have been avoiding posting on the forums as a result. I like to read and I have written a lot of stories. I don't know what else to write here. Nice to meet you!

Hi Nick Elixir

I'd like to join Grandy in welcoming you to the forums. I, too have anxiety, but no experience of Aspergers. What do you like to read? I have 6 books on the go at the moment 🙂

Welcome! Katy

Hello Nick Elixir, welcome. I'm sorry to hear you have Aspbergers (I don't know much about it so please forgive me), and Social Anxiety. I have a Social Phobia also.

No need for you to be scared, we're all friendly here 🙂

I have multiple books on the go as well. I start reading one book and then I find another one and start reading that one . . . and then I forget about the first one and have to start it all over again because I forget what it's about.

Nick elixir, and Katy

I volunteer at an op shop and often have many books that are in a bookshelf on my bed head.

Nick I read mostly non fiction, history, philosophy, memoirs and anything to do with words.
What do you read.

[Nick_Elixir]

I like reading mostly fiction.

I also like to draw and colour what I drew. I'm not very good, but I'm slowly getting better.

Hi Nick

I'm a great believer in not having to be good at something to do it. What sort of things do you like to draw? The only thing I've ever really drawn is lead pencil portraits.

Hi Nick. I replied and welcomed you but you must've missed my comment.
