!!**I do NOT have a social media account to talk to anybody on, nor do I have a phone with any apps I could use. I only have Discord, and give it out VERY sparingly. Please don't ask me to go offsite right away! Talk to me a while first.**!!

There's so much to add, where do I even start? My name is Lily, I'm 31 as of creating this profile, and I came here because I'd really like to make some more friends to talk to. Obviously the picture isn't really of me...but my 'anime self', if you will. I'd rather not have a picture of me available for everyone to see.
I'm really only looking for online friends at the moment. I do suffer from anxiety and depression, as well as having high-functioning autism. I get stressed going out in public places, or when needing to socialize, so I tend to stay home and keep to myself. Even though I have a good relationship with my family, I feel as though it isn't enough sometimes and I have recently been finding myself so lonely that it's feeding into my depression and making things much worse.
I can be awkward and shy at first, but I do open up and get talking fairly quick if I'm given something to work with. (One-liners, such as "Hi." are no good for conversation starters!) I do love animals, and find that if you bring up the topic of pets or animals...I -will- talk your ear off. So, you've been warned!
I might not sound my age sometimes. I think my autism caused me to mature much slower mentally, and even though I'm an adult, and understand a fair amount...I still haven't quite let go of favorite things from being a child, such as plush toys or my love of anything Disney.
I enjoy writing and have done some text-based roleplays, but it's never easy finding a good partner for those. And it's only fun when the mood strikes me. I also love playing games, although most aren't wildly popular. (Petz 4 being the most unheard-of game I enjoy, despite its' simplicity.) Some more popular favorites are Pokemon, The Sims 4, Skyrim, and Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley type games.
Regarding a lower-down question involving politics, I am not able to understand them well enough to know how to even talk about them.
Another note, I'm in Pacific Standard Time, and am usually only online between 6pm-4am. Somewhere in that range. It varies. But I'm usually too busy during the day to be online then, and I'm more of a night owl anyway, so I'm always around at night.
Am I crazy, or is the "Food Choices" section at the bottom of my profile NOT an option to edit? I don't see that on the Edit Profile page anywhere, haha! But I love pizza! I'm also into chocolate...I always have a sweet tooth. I don't always need a lot, but I crave it like crazy at least daily.
I will probably add to this or tidy things up later. I literally have no idea what to add, so I just blurted out a few random things!
