| Of course not! I grew up in a time when aspergers and autism wasn't so highly diagnosed and I wasn't diagnosed until I was 39. Did my parents think I was a little strange? Probably, but it wasn't something major. This day and age so much emphasis is put on autism as being a disability. They are much... |

Mine change monthly, usually cycling between several longstanding ones. Mine recently have been:
Skyrim, jiu-jitsu, pewdiepie
I wish they wouldn't change so often! |

| I realized over the weekend that I need to be controlled in order to not feel anxious and have extreme anxiety. I need to be told what I can and cant do and have some boundaries that are stricter than what I would prefer. I thought that my intense anxiety was from being alone but realized I'm only c... |

Abnormal psychology, martial arts, video games, repeat.
Anyone else do this? |

| I am very sensitive to smell. I sniff the air like a dog any time there is a new smell. I enjoy when I pick up a scent in the air because its new information to "see" and identify. I often smell something near me and will identify it without seeing it first. |

| I realized that the only way I can feel connected in a relationship is in the romance phase or physical touch (oxytocin). I can't feel connected emotionally, therefore when relationships get past this initial phase of romance and lots of touch it starts to break down for me. Anyone else feel this wa... |

| Do you like martial arts? If you learn to defend yourself perhaps the puffery won't be as repulsive. You could get some confidence and be the badass that knows he could kicks anyone's ass. If not that's cools too but I think it would help with confidence. That's all they constantly try to do is asse... |

| Do you think you have an advantage over others, because all I get is emotionally overwhelmed, disappointed, pain, struggle. Does ASD help you reproduce more than NTs? I don't see girls lined up for that. They are generally not wired for that. So no, I see ASD the exception, not ever the majority. |

| I can relate somewhat. I think relating to adults is almost always a fail. I like to think about what interests me and get absorbed into that world so I can escape the world where I don't fit in.
