| I have a baby face (i'm almost 15) and it's annoying. I certainly look younger than I am. When I was younger I had a very high pitched squeky voice too. |

| I feel like a huge piece of who I am has been taken away. I'm getting bored and more disinterested in my special interest lately. I'm having incredible anxiety the past few days, because it's my routine to do my special interest throughout the day. I have sub interests atm, but there not like a full... |

| My family is fine. Other people really don't touch me, so I don't really know. I don't like shaking hands though. I do know that I'm sensitive in 3 places, around my eyes, my stomach, and on top of my heels. It hurts like hell if someone touches my heels.. I had to make sure the hair cutter would no... |

| OP, I forgot to ask: Is this related to your special interest? As in talking too much? Over sharing? I have both urges to correct people/speak my mind and I also tend to ramble on and on ...and..on... Basically all of that! Especially if someone says something inaccurate about my special interest, ... |

| Chewing on shirts. In a ton of my childhood photos I had a big wet stain around my collar from chewing on my shirt. I would go through shirts constantly because I put holes in them with my teeth. |

| It's usually something I don't say that people get mad about, but I am too honest sometimes. Such as when my family left from visiting for Easter, they told me "Thanks for having us", and I said "Well, it wasn't my idea", inferring that it was my parents idea, which it was. It wasn't out of rudeness... |

| Very very big problem with this. I have to tell people to look at the menu for me and choose for me, partly because restuarant menus overwhelm me, and I can never make a decision. Same with shops. Or even the simplest of decisions like what plate to choose for dinner. |
