Lots to say here, sorry if this ends up turning into a block of text. I guess I'll start by introducing myself. I'm a guy, and my name (on here) is RoshiBoi, but it's more of an alias than anything. I'd prefer to be called Roshi if you want to call me anything XD. Only reason I didn't use my "regular" username is because I don't want people I know IRL or other people I know online to know I have an account here. Alrighty, boring stuff out of the way, I'm 99.99% sure I have MD. Only reason that's not 100% is because it was a self diagnosis I've had it for as long as I remember, but didn't know what it was until about a few months ago ish. I'd known about this site, and even lurked around a few times, but was too shy to actually make an account. So I never did. Until now. Where to even start, theres so much stuff I want to talk about. I'll probably go into more detail in other posts and replies and stuff, may even join the discord. Sorry if this is a bit jumbled up or anything, I have a lot on my mind writing this. Back to MD. I've always called it "spacing out" (pretty sure a teacher said that or something and I picked it up) and it's just been this weird thing that I can never explain to people when they ask things like "Why do you put your hands in front of your face and make those weird motions with them?" because the true answer is "I have no idea." Truthfully, I didn't even know I WAS doing it, I was absorbed into the world of whatever I was daydreaming at the time. Ok, it's getting late and I need to sleep. I'm up in bed making this post when I should really be sleeping so I have energy for school. I'll type out more stuff in more detail at some point and on my PC so I don't get phone cramps XD. Sorry about typos or if I missed anything or it's all in a weird order and whatnot, I just wanna get this done and sleep XDDD Thank you for reading thg is vent thingy and whatnot. I'll try and reply and update on stuff tomorrow. ! :D

Hey Roshi, I know exactly what you meant about not knowing you were doing it. When I first found out I made noises it was at my friends house in fourth grade(?). The conversation when something like this: Friend's dad: Are you ok? Me: yeah...? I'm just *after he walks away* Me: why'd he ask that? Friend: You make really weird noises when you're spacing out. I had never known before. I vaguely remember crying to my mom about it. Anyways, welcome to the forum I just joined last night myself. Feels refreshing to finally talk about it to people who understand, I hope you feel the same.

Welcome to the forum!
Pretty much all of us here are self diagnosed, so you aren't alone in that. Not many health professionals know about MD and its definitely not in the DSM yet, so self diagnosis is pretty much the only option we have.
If you feel comfortable, feel free to share more about your experiences here or in other threads around the forum.

Welcome to the forum =) Yeah it's always awkward to explain to people what we have most of the times they don't quite understand. Don't be afraid to to ask or rant about whatever you want.
