I just have these damnit thoughts about every single thing without a reason sometimes they don't even make sense, like my reasoning ability is messed up... Sometimes i think complexe thoughts and feel like i'm locked in, i'm very sure that i'm not smart but i dunno its weird is very confusing everything is all the time its crazy its like everything is more complicated then it actually should be, like i think too much about stupid that doesn't matter and that my brain pulls me out of reality all the time! Its unexplainable and really bothersome, it sometimes doesn't feel like it has an end...

You're analyzing everything, in other words. Overanalyzing can indeed be a problem. However, it can be put to good use in things like software design where you're always looking to make things better.

I have the same problem, it sucks but not being able to "switch it off" can help you learn a lot :)

Its a curse an blessing. At work, if people give me a minute, I can solve rather long and complex problems which they cant normally get there head around. A sort of in head filing system.

The problem is, switching off is hard, and leads to a bit of sleep time problems. Also, over analyzing things which should be a normal process, but, it can be fun sometimes.

But i don't understand, i'm deffinatly not smart and good in knowing anything or remembering things. I mean i'm very convinced of that but its confusing i dunno if i can explain anything about it tbh. I am really not smart, i'm really disfunctioned and i can't draw decently even after years of training whenever i get the chance i'm bad at remembering stuff so i don't think it can be like what you are talking about...

Well, I can't really judge, but is it possible that you're depressed and maybe don't even realize it? I was when I was your age, and it played hell with my memory and thinking. One thing I learned once I finally got help: you can be depressed and not know it. Even if you think you feel okay, it can still have a firm hold on you. And there's nothing like the feeling of having that weight lifted off you. You just feel so clean.

Indeed. That probably plays a large part of it. I know getting help for it is scary and hard. Scariest thing I ever did, and I waited far too long to do it. It's like having cotton on your mind all the time. You know something's wrong, but you don't know what. You need to take care of that, before it ruins your life. I nearly failed high school and had to take medical withdrawal from college because of it. It just got to where I couldn't absorb or understand anything, and I was a total wreck.

Sounds a lot like my thought process. My mind tends to wander and make odd associations. At least, they seem odd to me...

What is this? The Lupine Convention? :D 8)

Note: this is not the first time I've seen this, odd as it may sound. At least one other person I used to know (also likely an Aspie) also had a strange affinity for wolves. I really don't know how to explain it.

I used to think the same thing; you just need to find a way to manage your stress so you can sort thru all of that, and realize your true potential. May I recommend some CDs with relaxing music, with some deep breathing? I do it almost every night; my girlfriend taught it to me; helps me clear my mind, and helped me discover my true intellect. You'll be surprised dude- TRUST me.

I've never met a dog I didn't get on with, strange as that sounds.

I'm suprised my mind does blow the way it can obsess or work out a thought unconciously. If I see a face sometimes my mind will immediately start working trying to remember who that person resembles that I know. I may make the connection immediately or maybe days later.
I know what you mean as obsessing can really suck :roll: It wears you out physically and mentally.
