    Did discovering what stims are change your attitude about them?

    Before I heard about stimming, I called rocking "dancing", even to other people. I rock for various reasons, notably when I'm happy. I always called it dancing to myself, and when I found out about stimming I realized I was rocking this whole time lol. I think I used to stim at a significantly...

    Introduction

    Cool! I like to take pictures of flowers and insects too! Also landscapes, mountains, waterfalls, my family when we go on family trips, fireworks... I love capturing moments as they come, immortalizing them in photos forever.

    I collect rocks too, specifically crystals! I love their texture. I'll see if I can get a picture of one or more of them on here later!

    Any of you not able to make friends? I know I very rarely make friends.

    I've definitely struggled to make friends (still do!). Facial expressions and their meaning are often confusing. I have to catalog in my mental database every single expression and it's meaning. If I encounter a new expression, I have to catalog that too or I won't understand it then and now and...

    Greetings!

    Thank you! The username has its inspiration not only from bagels but also from a video game. I once had a dream I was one of the characters in that game. A rather surreal experience, as the dream was quite vivid.

    Greetings!

    After eating that bagel I loved, 100% agree! I haven't tried them with cream cheese yet! I'm actually pretty new to the bagel scene despite my username, but all these replies are giving me excellent ideas! The bagel that I loved was from a shop in New York (an overwhelming city sometimes, but...

    Greetings!

    The texture is very different to me! The pretzels I've had tend to be crunchier, while bagels are softer.

    Greetings!

    I used to really dislike bagels actually. I only ever tried plain bagels until last year, when I tried a bagel with garlic and other toppings on it. I've been a bagel convert ever since!

    Greetings!

    Hello! I'm BagelDreams, and I joined the forum because I can relate to so much of the experience being shared here, and I want to communicate with you all and hopefully make some friends. I was never officially diagnosed, but I'm considering the possibility and looking into an official...
