It's all about me me me

I think a lot of the time, the insecurity issues' roots that go back to childhood experiences.

Parents often don't give us the attention we need, and in case of children with Autism or Asperger's, we sometimes feel that way more strongly because we have a harder time connecting with them. And because we have fewer relationships with people other than our parents, we often need more attention from them than the average person. With time, we get used to not getting the attention we need, and these issues disappear until one day they begin to manifest themselves later in our lives when we start trying to socialize.

I think that it's only natural for people on the spectrum to ponder how life relates to them in order that they may get a better grip on this thing that often seems so foreign.

Lol, by making this thread you're being even more "self-centered".

Aimless, you shouldn't really be surprised by this. AS, being a form of Autism (read "SELF-ism"), is partly all about self.

It is in great part a "ME! ME! ME!" condition. It feels like that because that's exactly what it IS.

No need to feel ashamed or apologize for it IMHO. It's part of who you are as much as it is everyone else here.

This place is an outlet for every one. I don't think you have anything to be sorry about.

Geez, now you've got me worried that I am too self involved in my posts. What exactly else are supposed to talk about, the weather, if not stuff that is actually your life?

In my opinion, the act of posting here indicates an attempt to connect to others who can relate to you and to whom you can relate. Therefore it cannot be all about you, instead, it's all about us? Just a thought.

it is very common for aspergians to feel self absorbed. it is just a diffrent way of communicating, do not feel bad.

Aimless, I think of you as someone who helps others a lot. Perhaps you deserve some attention every once in a while...
