Im Nicholas, 31, Male and from Harrogate in the UK

I have registered on this before but i completely forgot my nickname and password il remember im Nicholas1000x now :) remember it with me :) i was diagnosed with AS at 25

i have been obssesively trying to fix my mind and behavior since before my diagnosis and i didnt know AS existed which you could say is my obsesion I am aware that im aware that im aware and tamper with my head because i can witness is working and alter how it works with beliefs and ideas im constantly trying to rebuild its structure and keep control of it all

i wont go on about this but i could talk for ages about it

i was very shy till my early twenties but had an epiphany which probably came in the form of a quote and i pushed myself to talk to complete strangers on public transport and anywhere i could i got experience and confidence and stories :) if you push yourself you will get rewards :)

reality doesnt seem to mean as much to me than my reengineering i keep clean and clean my flat ok i go to new places sometimes very far away and explore, talk to people and see what happens to me :) iv been told i shouldnt really do that :) i cant really stand up for myself i cant deal with the reaction or with any emotional outburst and i think i must seem like a monster at funerals with my lack of empathy theres other things but this message is getting very long goodness i must seem so me me me :?

im here to meet new people :)

Hallo, fellow Brit! :)

You've been very brave to come out, and should be commended for it :).

I'm not diagnosed, but it's pretty obvious that I'm AS ;). I hope you'll find this site as useful as I have - I've already taken various tests and ordered books online, which I think might really help my understanding of this.

I wouldn't worry about the funerals thing - yes, people don't get us, but everyone is different, so hopefully they'll forget about it - least, I hope so, cos I've done exactly the same thing!

I'm from Berkshire :). I doubt I can claim DB, but then with the government cracking down on benefits, how long would it last? :?

I agree that searching the world and keeping an open mind is an admirable thing :). I cherish all my experiences, good or bad and keep them for future reference, should they become useful at some point!

Do I see and do new stuff... Hmm, not sure if I do, really. When I find something I like, I tend to stick with it because it's safe! I'm willing to try anything once, but I'll only keep doing it if I like it ;).

So you like the newness of things?

Im in north yorkshire im near york and leeds :) is berkshire anywhere near london? :)

if you get diagnosed you can :) well if i can you can :)

I like the way you think arian :) being greatful and learning and doing anything once :) have you done anything different recently? that you liked ? :)

i do have things i stick to that i feel comfortable doing usually but sometimes i decide to push myself to do new things and see new things because i like that its improving me :) i can feel my head being added to and changing :) we are lucky to be alive so i have to fill it as much as i can with stories :)

really iv completely twisted my thinking to make going out of my comfort zone more comfortable :D
