Do I think like a aspie?

Post Reply New Topic

It's hard for me to say much of anything in this world. I mean, I cannot say "i feel like a girl" because I don't know the difference between feeling like a girl and feeling like a boy. I have not felt both, I have only felt one, so I really do not know what the other feels like, so I cannot say I do not feel like that... The same with being a aspie, I do not know the difference between the two because I am only one, so I cannot honestly say I think like a aspie, because I do not know any other alternatives...

This world is really weird... everyone is always off with their reasoning... is it possible to understand something even when it is not understandable? like the saying "its hard to wrap your head around it", how do you wrap your head around something? Everyone I ask says that you can't, and that it's just a saying. Than why do we have the saying? It does not make sense, that's stupid! Why don't we use sayings that actually make sense... just say "its hard to comprehend".

Sometimes I hear weird sayings and wonder how they came up with them in the first place. Like "quiet as a mouse". I have pet mice and a mouse in my kitchen wall and they aren't quiet at all. They can get pretty noisy with the chewing and running in the wheel.

I found this site that has a bunch of sayings.

I think in similar ways. But if you can describe your own perceptions and experiences then correlate those to others descriptions, then you can conclude that there is similarity. So if someone describes having Asperger's and their description resonates with your own, then you can with some confidence assume that you feel like you have Asperger's. Conversely, if someone describes their schizophrenia and it does not correlate to your own descriptors, you can conclude you are not schizophrenic.
