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.
Great blogs, awesome pictures. Keep up the writing, you’re a wonderful role model for not only someone with disabilities, but anyone who ever had a dream…but didn’t think they could do it!!
