| My current issue is that I seem to be able to come up with the ideas, the general main story, day dreaming, etc but then when it comes time to actually make the story happen I just can't hold my focus on it. My disorder seems to really cross with negative schizophrenic symptoms which I read ASD and ... |

| Okay so I met someone on Omegle that I chatted with a couple of weeks ago who has schizophrenia and there is this thing that I do that I am kind of searching for answers for. Okay so I have pretty much all the negative symptoms, of course I know that ASD can have similar symptoms but I might or migh... |

| Yes it is important that you get checked out to rule out seizures. Seizures are frequently associated co occurring diagnosis. On the other hand ASD is also very susceptible to dissociation so it is not unlikely that what you are experiencing dissociation. When you mentioned multiples what you were ... |

Well by M... |

| I used to be able to write and not get a writer's block because I would have pictures in my head and write them all down and I didn't have a problem with it. I used to make my hand sore too from all the writing. Then I was put on new medicine in 6th grade and that is when the writer's blocks starte... |

| Yeah, I'd say that's just describing some of the aspects of High Functioning Autism. Our social functioning seems to go into a holding pattern somewhere between the ages of 17 and 22, and to a large degree, we never become much more functional than that. I'm sure it has to do with brain development... |

| Going through old posts as I come to settle down here and seeing this one, I am so ashamed of myself for acting like this. Since this thread I got an official diagnosis of ASD and Borderline PD and I can sometimes see how the symptoms may play off each other and one could spring the other and such, ... |

| First of all, it is so annoying trying to research things on google when it is all child oriented. Maybe using the new ASD reference is messing it up but honestly the DSM was changed in 2013, people should catch up with the times. (Glad they combined it all together because I hate the jokes people m... |

| Being soaked in water while clothed is a bad sensory trigger to meltdowns for me. I always go out with a large anorak when it even says "light rain shower predicted" on my weathr app. When I have a shower, I spend ages drying myself. So, yes, a sensory issue indeed. Thank you for your response. I k... |
