It is interesting here, such a diversity of members and topics. I suppose i am a little lonely as well. Confused

As a side note...this website is seething with thread necromancy. Every fifth topic seems to be from a year or two ago. Very Happy

I guess I came here because I had become somewhat fixated on the autistic spectrum and my possible relation thereto....and then..um...got addicted.

Having only a few close-ish friends, and not always even able to relate to them beyond a certain extent...forums are a useful tool to help me vent...it is the closest I get to bonding to people beyond superficial and often uncomfortable niceties... and um...I like WP better than the ADD forums I used to belong to.

It's mainly a way of socializing, for me.

Also, reading the topics tends to trigger me into answering, whether through obligation or sheer habit I have no idea.

I came here shortly after I was diagnosed because my nana found this website and told me about it.
Why I stay here, is because there are some interesting topics to talk about. Also, I have met some good people here.

To see that they're people just like me out there. To see what we have in common and to find out about myself more.

I first came here to meet people that understand me, and I have. Now I 'm here to talk to them.

Because I like both real life friends, and Internet friends. I can also speak my mind here, without being frowned upon.

Cause I'm one of a few things. Bored was the reason I came back. I had just gotten a new laptop after a few months of having no computer, and was getting bored of my usual haunts. So now I'm here cause I'm either bored, lonely, and/or drunk.

I seem to belong in here !

It's possibly the only forum where nearly every post / thread interests me .

Also many of the replies could have been written by ME as alot of us WRITE/ construct sentences in similar ways.
