Why I Chose To Blog

I chose to start this blog to chronicle daily life moments that happen to me and share them to other people for them to see how I myself perceive of them as, especially since I am someone on the Autism spectrum.
When I was really little, I always had a hard time expressing myself verbally and being in classrooms with other kids my own age. I got very frustrated in these situations and it felt too much for me to handle, causing me to become a really emotional boy. However years going forward with continuous helpful support has allowed to improve tremendously on these issues that have made the possibility to live a much easier and fun-filled life happen.
I believe that these issues stemmed from my Autistic mind giving me high levels of anxiety that made it hard to function normally and being a younger person with a still-developing mind certainly wasn't any help.
As I do this blog, I will be going over the many strategies/helpful ways that have helped me become a more independent and sociable person that might prove to be useful for anyone else struggling with special needs themselves so they too can see progress in reaching a clear and promising future that will bring them loads of possibilities for that they may want in their lives.
I hope that I will be able to show those people that even with a disability (whether it'd be physical or mental), one is still capable of doing special and important tasks even if they will need some help here or there.
