Please, no haters. I want to try and make a clan for people with autism, ADHD, mental illness or anyone who struggles to find friends.

I'm thinking of calling it Neuroverse. I'm open to suggestions though.

Destiny has been my special interest for months and I want to stay playing but I'm finding it very hard to get into raid groups so I don't have the best guns. I've got a few lengendaries and the Ice Breaker but I'd love to get those guns that I keep hearing other gamers talk about.

Personally, I don't like raiding with people who always complain about other players. I'm probably not the best as I'm kind of dyspraxic and find it hard to press run when I'm needed to run. I've even managed to bring up the menu at crucial moments. I've also got a poor sense of direction and can get lost in big maps.

This clan will be for Xbox One I'm afraid. I haven't bought a PS4 yet.

The reason I'm making this clan is because I hide my autism or any other condition I'm living with from other gamers. They use 'autistic' as an insult and really don't much about it. I even keep my gender a secret. There are some parts of the gaming community where I don't feel welcome at all.

I say why not have a clan or group where we all have something in common, where we won't fear ridicule or ignorant comments? Let's be free to say we're autistic without being mocked for it.

So, let me know if you're interested in joining and I'll make one on Bungie.net.

Again, any hateful comments about Destiny will be ignored.
