| Your parents did the right thing by bringing you to specialists who could uncover what was going on. They did the right thing by endeavoring to make sure that you had access to all of the things that any other kid would. They did the right thing by no undermining your self-confidence. Did they do t... |

| I was "officially diagnosed" at 15, but was actually diagnosed at age 8 and I just found out it was kept from me because my parents thought "it won't be a problem if we don't make it one". The reason this makes me so angry is because A) I didn't get the help I needed and struggl... |

| I like Merzbow's Pulse Demon quite a bit. I like a few other albums by him. I don't listen to much noise, but I appreciate Sunn0))), early Sonic Youth and other no-wave, Atari Teenage Riot, Godflesh, and a lot of other 'extreme music' that overlaps with noise. Mhmm yes Sun 0))) is brilliant post ro... |

| Thanks for all the replies, I eventually did bring up the issue with my mom and while it was an ordeal in the moment things have settled down for the best. First off I’d like to say that my parents did do a great job at raising me given the circumstances. I have three other siblings and while I’ve a... |

| I do like drone and post-rock for its noise elements. Its a fun genre to experiment with, I used to take electric guitars and drag metals rods across the strings for a similar effect. If to make something from nothing were god's goal then man is merely the strumming of said guitar. |

| I used to love watching gore when I was younger, nowadays I prefer medical videos. I think I first liked watching it because it created new ways to visualize the human body under stress, nowadays I watch for a more medical purpose. My sister would often show me videos of operations on humans or anim... |

| Probably. People I've dated in the past have often commented on certain aspects about me that they've enjoyed (or for some things.. disliked). The most common comment would be my "focus", many of my partners have said they like the way I get intensely drawn into deep thought; mainly becaus... |

| I clench whenever I look at animals or something cute. I kinda feel like I'm chewing into it, but the moment I look away it stops. |

| So I recently figured out I was on the spectrum after about two years of college so I went to get a diagnosis and found out I'm high functioning autistic. Looking back on my childhood I began to realize there were so many signs; the echolalia, the "fidgeting" as my parents called it, and m... |

| Met my current partner through a physics teaching program, we would go on walks after group sessions and just talk. They were dating someone when I first met them which kinda took the pressure off our interactions which was nice, sometimes I get more anxious than usual when I'm intimidated by a pote... |
