| I find, as some have posted, that drinking makes me more talkative, social - more NT-like - and also "de-sensitizes" me to a point where I am more relaxed and not so overstimulated.

| I wash and blowdry mine, though do little else. I *hate* hair and hate to fool with it. Whenever I go in for a cut, I always tell them to do whatever as long as I can "wash and wear" it with no styling involved. However, I *hate* going to the hair salons almost as much as a can't stand fooling with ... |

| I didn't learn to ride a bike without training wheels until I was 12 1/2.. kind of embarassing I was that old. I like to bike ride sometimes - it can be fun, though I don't know that I feel completely balanced or comfortable on a bike. |

If there are many noises at once or many people are talking at once in a close area, I start to feel very stressed and find myself jumping back and forth between the different noises or conversations and can't focus on one.
