aspie babble

i'm a girl with asperger's syndrome from the UK. about me :)

i started this blog because i needed somewhere to vent, and maybe it'll be helpful to other girls with asperger's. i am also recovering from anorexia so i write about that from time to time.

aspie girls are very different to aspie boys. as a result, it's hard to diagnose, and even harder to explain to NTs.

i’m having a hard time accepting myself, and it’s ruining everything.

i just want to be someone else; someone extroverted who thrives in social situations, and has energy to do that. it’s very very fucking difficult to function in a society where pleasantries are expected, where you’re a bad person if you don’t want to hang out and party or talk.

i do think that i made a friend recently, however. i felt understood and okay around him. he doesn’t know about my asperger’s but he doesn’t have to. he seems to like that i’m not quite “normal”.

i’m just struggling right now.
