Hello there!
Iโm new here. Iโm a 31 year old auDHD girly. Video games and fantasy are what I enjoy most as well as spending time with my cat or being out in the green nature.
Iโve been looking for a safe space with understanding people for a long time as I feel in the real world I always have to mask who I truly am to be more palatable for society, but it is draining and I was starting to feel lost.
I am quite socially awkward, plus scared to make connections out of fear of rejection or getting hurt, and my ASD can also get in the way, but ultimately I know I still want connection and thought maybe with people who know what itโs like that it might not be so scary and possible to find.
Thank you for reading! โบ๏ธ

Hey @CloudedLight great to meet you! AuDHD gang checking in hehe I love chatting away about my ND life!!
Definitely no masking needed here. You'll find many folks who can relate to how exhausting it is to present a certain way to the world! I think another great thing about this community is that there's no pressure to respond right away or in a certain way, you can engage with the space in the way that best suits your needs! This is coming from someone who has struggled a lot in the past with feeling the need to respond right away, to texts or emails or whatever ๐
I also LOVE fantasy... Big D&D nerd over here ๐ Always happy to chat about it, or about ND stuff, or about pretty much anything!! Just tag me whenever you like and I'll respond when I'm next online ๐
