| I feel like it's an ideal situation when one uses one's time for productive purposes, while thoroughly enjoying what they are doing. Interestingly, I did not speak until I was age 5 1/2. A lack of speech during the 1960s was sometimes known as "aphasia." I was described as having "ap... |

| Yeah...I know what you mean. When I was a kid, about 12 years old, I used to have too much time on my hands. I would get so bored that I would shoplift. There are times when I feel that I have "too much time on my hands." At other times, I don't have enough time at all. I don't tend to us... |

Any time I finish to do something, e.g., when I finish the academic year, or when I just have a few free hours I don't know why but I get so anxious tha... |

| I'm sorry for the (partially) off topic, but you really triggered this... The DSM decided that since May 2015 (If I remember well) Asperger...does not exist. In the sense that there is only one category for the all Austims Spectrum Disorders, no subcategories anymore. Or probably there are still dis... |

| If you want to know professors better, I suggest that you email them with interest in doing one of their research projects. Often, professors have research projects in need of students to work on, and they will tell you about their projects and ask you to pick one. Then, you will get right to work ... |

| Are you going to do research directly with a professor in the next year of masters? I think it would be better than writing thesis on your own. Less isolated and more guidance and feedback about your ideas. Here where I am studying now master students do not do much research, we just write an ordin... |

| Thank you everyone! I guess most of you know how much the academic environment can be stressful. In my field everyone aspires to become a researcher, competition is crazy, grades matter too much, and so on. But yes, I have to learn to take my time and to get used to all this. Today after a workshop ... |
