Hi, you can call me Rin. Sorry, I lied on date of birth to match the one of Rin Kagamine, I'm actually 27.
I'm a theater student from France. I read about the forum in the "Unmasking Autism" book and thought I could say hi. I didn't find any interesting autism meet-up in my area. English isn't my native language, I hope it'll be fine.
I'm, well, confused about a lot of things. I was overall doing great in my studies until last july, where after a pretty bad suicidal phase, I went to a psychiatric hospital. There, they started to talk to me about autism, despite the big amount of other mental health diagnosis I got in the past, and I am now being assessed by a new psychiatrist. My journey around these is a mess really, but I start to grasp that all of it can fit under this autism spectrum disorder umbrella.
I'm in my last year of studies, I'm also a part-time DJ and next year, I'm supposed to do whatever I have in my power to become a professional artist. I kinda want to just lock myself in my room playing music and video games. For now, I'm on this very big training schedule to become an actress tho. But I don't really know what that means anymore.
I guess I just need to talk to some people to figure things out. Who do I actually want to be, where am I headed and how can I build a good life around myself. I'm okay with people, I'm even somewhat popular in my local queer community, but it seems that I'm unable to make real friends. I know how to get positive attention from people, but that's all. I don't really know what I lack to actually connect with others.
So I thought why not joining an online community to research about all this and here I am. I hope I'll be able to meet some cool people around there to chat with and share stuff about our interests and life. I hope I'll be able to stick around.
Hope you are enjoying a nice day where you are!
