The right planet for me right now would be a planet where I wake up, without a single city noise or bird flying.

All quiet, all stable, no movements, no external outputs.

When I decide I must move, the world moves along with me.

It would the best planet for me.

Also a mass genocide would be appreciated because I like to live in large areas without population and all the earth seems to be so crowdeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed



Perhaps mass suicide or migration to another planet would be more morally acceptable :D
Good luck with your exams and life in general




Hey but I would be the first person to migrate if I could. Do you know any place like the one I described to move?

The answer to this question is simple:

Being who I am, naturally, and still being able to comfortably navigate things socially.

NTs take this for granted. They have problems, sure. But it's not a continuous struggle for them. For me (for US) it clearly is. Isn't that the prime definition of Asperger's after all? (Spare me side stories of meltdowns, sensory overload, and executive functioning problems. That's all secondary chickensh*t, and we all know it!)


No, "we" don't all know it, and these are hardly "side stories." For me, sensory issues are as big a problem as social interaction. In terms of daily life, executive functioning is the hardest.

Who named you the model autistic?

Please tell us why you feel that you are living on the "wrong planet", if this is the case. I ask this because this forum is called "Wrong Planet." What changes would be needed for you to feel more at home in your own environment, family, social or work?


I don't know that I'd like to change much at the end of the day. It seems most of the things that really eat at me in my day to day life are when I realize after the fact that I've hurt someone's feelings without meaning to. I don't think that is the fault of others. I just feel like a bull in a china shop sometimes. Maybe that's why I like being alone so much. When I'm alone I don't have to worry about bending over backwards to understand how to act in an "acceptible" way. I just get tired of being a bother.

No one named me any sort of model autistic, no. Nor did anyone name cubedemon6073 or Benjamin the Donkey any sort of model either.

I wasn't talking about any ONE person. I was talking in an average sense, autistics as a collective statistic. Yes, the secondary stuff is just that, secondary. It is indeed chickensh*t, with the prime defining factor in HFA being social deficits.

Think beyond YOURSELF. It's hard, but try. And that wasn't even my main point, but that's what you felt the need to respond to? Wow.
