    What would you neurotypical twin be like?

    My NT twin would be my fiancé. We both love video games, all things scifi, same humor, have jobs in the IT field, and we even kind of dress the same. I am more talented, but I think it's because I'm high functioning. It makes me appreciate the way I am. On the other hand my fiancé is much more...

    What song are you listening to right now?

    Music - YouTube I'll just link my youtube playlist. I like a lot of the new electronic music because it usually has a pretty repetitive beat. A few of the songs help me sleep on the train to and from work. I also really enjoy Linkin Park.

    Seeing my psychiatrist Friday afternoon...

    I have a similar issue, except my therapist wants to focus on some mental abuse I went through as a kid. I feel like that's just a peice of the problem. I've already come to terms with my past, the present panic attacks and inability to handle overstimulating environments is my issue. I feel...

    Want to ask my therapist if I can get diagnosed

    I see my therapist on the 18th for our third session. Last time I brought up the possibility of AS, she brushed it off. Since then, I've been reading about AS and taking the quizzes over and over again(all points to highly likely an aspie). It's all I can think about. My problem is when I need...

    I haven't joined a forum in a long time.

    Thanks for the resources, Vanilla. Taking the online tests and doing some research is giving me the confidence to get diagnosed.

    A new AQ-test by Newsweek?

    I brought it up to my therapist in my last session, but that was only our second session together. I found a list of traits that aspies have, and I compare them to myself with her, but after that we got on a different topic and we never discussed how I could get diagnosed.

    A new AQ-test by Newsweek?

    I'm not diagnosed, but I got a 41. I'm still learning about what asperger's really is, so I'm not too sure how the questions scored me and how accurate it is. Are any of these online quizzes something my therapist might be interested in?

    What is your one worst fear?

    I can't stand being unconscious, which stems into me being afraid of sleep, and also death. The idea of not being "productive", is difficult for me, especially when I was younger. I'd rather toss and turn then let my mind go to fall asleep. I take Zzzquil to help me sleep now, it kind of works...

    I haven't joined a forum in a long time.

    Thank you, Rocco. I was looking at your shop, I like the colors you use, they contrast nicely. Makes me want to paint or draw again. Also, thanks Suzanne. I don't know if it's because of anxiety, AS or something else, but I sort of jump around obsessions as well, which led me to change my...

    Obsessions or compulsions that annoy you :(

    I can't stand flooring that has too much pattern. I like floors that are grid-like(with squares a person could fit in, not the tiny tiles I feel uncomfortable standing on those.) or is one single solid color. If the flooring has stripes, I need to have my feet parallel with the lines. When I'm...

    What computer do you use?

    I built my own computer. i5 3570k, asus P8Z77 V LK, gigabyte gtx 970, 8GBs Ram ddr3 1600, 1 TB 7200RPM on Windows 7. Just recently got the gtx 970, upgraded from the gtx 660. So far it's performing great. I don't have the time for it now, but at some point I want to sleeve all the cables(blue...

    I haven't joined a forum in a long time.

    Hi. I just found this forum. I'm 23 for now. It's my birthday December 10th. I am diagnosed with anxiety and depression, and suspect I might have aspeger's. I've had anxiety and depression for as long as I can remember. I just started my career in IT. I love working on computers, playing video...
