I am expecting the answer to this question to be different for everybody. However, I am curious if other people can 'forget' their AS and what do they do or where do they go to do it?
I have a constant feeling reminding me of my AS with nearly everything I do but when I listen to heavy metal music the feeling goes away. When its loud and its heavy, it doesn't matter if its fast or slow, I can lose myself in the music and forget my AS for awhile. When I go to concerts or festivals I feel normal and I feel my best when I am being pinned up against the stage or being knocked around in the pit. After a good show I can be relaxed and happy for a week or more after the show.
Joking aside, I get the same feeling from the music I like (although I'm more into psychedelic and indie rock than metal). Gigs are usually the one area of my life where I've never felt like a fish out of water - although I tend to stand a little way back from the front as, being 39, I'm too long in the tooth to be moshing.
