    How Does AS Affect You with Approaching and Flirting?

    I've always been terrified of flirting and generally approaching women I like. This is mainly because I'm hyper-awkward combined with my own inability to gauge my own facial expressions and reaction and wind up fearing that I'm coming off as creepy. It's especially challenging in this day and...

    Autism/Anxiety-Specific Habits/Strange Behaviors

    When I get angry, I sometimes either bite my hand or smash my hand against my chin very tightly to the point where I'd look almost cross-eyed. It's gotten better in recent years as I've learned more standard coping mechanisms, but sometimes I get exceptionally angry and it pops back up.

    Pet Peeves

    Finger snapping. Mostly because I never could do it, but it's such a harsh sound for me. Citrus smells. I don't know why, but I need to leave a room when someone eats an orange. It's a very unpleasant smell for me.
