| Yeah I tend to talk to myself quite a lot, never really thought of it as a stim but it could be now that I think about it.

| The best solution would just be to unfollow whoever's posting this or if it bothers you that much don't use tumblr. They're clearly ignorant to be posting stuff like that so just ignore them. |

| I can't wear tight clothes, they feel really uncomfortable, almost to the point where I feel like I'm being suffocated. I definatly prefer loose clothing. |

| Looking at photos in general wouldn't be an autistic trait, maybe looking at photos on one specific thing could be. Personally i could spend hours on end looking at photos of classic muscle cars. |

| If you really want it then go for it. For me the problem with learning to drive has nothing to do with the actual driving part (I'm fine with driving). Its the cost, with no job there's currently no way that I'll be able to afford to pay for driving lessons and the test fees. Let alone buying/insuri... |

| Generally I'd say there's 2 types of aspies. The sociable/talkative ones and the ones that just prefer to keep to themselves.

Sure there's a load of bad things in the world but if they don't directly concern you or have an impact on your life then you can't let them affect you too much.
There's nothing wrong with taking a bit of time to mourn/grieve about things but after that just try and move on. |

You shouldn't let those sorts of people get to you, he's there purely just to stir up trouble.
Maybe if he got to know somebody with autism he'd change his mind. |
