Thanks everyone. That is some really good advice. I definitely see how someone could think that I was being self centered when I get excited. People just take things too personal. I am trying to hold myself back because it always repels the other person. Thanks also for the Biblical references. God ...

Please do not use this as an excuse people. I understand that some people here are disabled but we are gifted people who are too complex for NT's to understand. We do better at jobs in which we have to use our magnificent brainpower. Do not get discouraged. Go to college at 35 if you have to (like m...

I had a fight today and as soon as it escalated I went to the bathroom, locked the door and and took a shower. I had this feeling that everything in my life was going in a positive direction but this scenario was dragging me down into an anger/almost depression. Hate filled me up. I tried a new tric...

Great advice. It is always good to put yourself in the other person's shoes when angry.

Adamantium yep those walks help.I have to run though. I went through the suicide stage when I was in my 20's. Took a little too many pills and ended up in a mental institution for a few days. I found out that it would hurt my family members so bad that I have never considered it again. So I hope tha...

Is there racism? Yes, just like everywhere else there are simple minded people. The problem with the media is that they only report one side when statistically African Americans make up 14 percent of the population and cause 52% of all murders. Its not genetic it is an education failure. So many mor...

Stim might work also thanks. Do you have any recommendations on a good one in particular or is it just all personal preference?

When talking to others I am normal(kind of careless) until I get interested in the conversation. I then overwhelm the other person with whatever knowledge that I might be excited about and my excitement is clear. Almost like a dog who thinks he is about to play. Usually the other person is offput by...

Thanks guys. I will try to use some of these methods especially some form of martial arts as Wolfram proposed. I used to think it was all my wife's fault because she was the source of my anger most of the time but I am coming to terms with the fact that being mature is not letting my anger take cont...

Diagnosed Aspie here. Some days I get so annoyed and just want to be alone. I can't stand to be touched or talked to. My wife has made the mistake of starting arguments with me during these times and she is not one to back down so they usually end up with me almost punching a hole in the wall. I jus...

Sorry I should have been more clear and yes 10% was just a safe number. I consider lazy cops dirty bc integrity plays a big role imo. If I my son points a gun at a cop and the cop kills him I would not blame it on the cops. Or if my 200 lb son beat up a cop and the cop shot him, it is not the cops f...

Hi all. I have Asp and became a cop or started to. I worked at the Sheriff's dept as a dispatcher and jailer. They wanted me to become full time deputy but I decided the job was not for me. Aspies are very intelligent and have the ability to learn anything and practice it to perfection. That is what...

I feel you on others not taking the friendship seriously. People do this to me all the time. I wish everyone could just be honest and tell each other exactly how they feel and think but speaking your mind is taboo here.

I am always trying to meet people and some actually start to become my friends but when I get to socializing with them they realize that I am very different. Some think that I am slow. They know that I am intelligent but I just do not pick up on the conversation. I just can't fit in with the cool cr...

Going back to facial recognition. I heard a body language expert say that looking into someone's eyes is the first step for you to remember their face. Maybe this is why so many of us forget faces or at least partially why. I believe the eyes are mysterious and beautiful. Truly the windows to the tr...
