About Me

I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome when I was 18. That's eighteen years of not knowing why I wasn't like everyone else I knew. I barely had friends growing up, except my mother, who is still my best friend. Now, fast forward almost 4 years later, and here I am, nine weeks pregnant. It's weird, I don't socialize very well, and now I'm expected to be able to raise a child? There are times where I just want to be alone, mainly because I can't handle being around people too much. What am I supposed to say now during those moments? "Sorry, baby, mommy can't be near you right now"? Talk about hurting a child's self-esteem.
