    Autism anthem

    @Ronald Zeeman What a song, but that compression is horrible, so here's a cleaner version 4 non blondes https://autism-dictionary.co.uk/music/4 Non Blondes - 4 Non Blondes - What's Up! (Edit) - 4 Non Blondes.mp3 @theconservativeaspie A bit on the nose.

    Greetings!

    Hey @Agent 0086 Give ARC Raiders a look, I didn't like the look of it myself, but my nephew bought it for me, less than two weeks in and I'm already at 100 hours.

    What video game are you currently playing?

    Wow. ARC Raiders, less than a week and already at 50 hours. Solo is really good, PVE and very little PVP. In fact PVP is mostly players helping one another. Side note: I used to apologise to NVP's that I hit/shot by accident. That's how strong my "moral rigidity" is. I'm much more flexible...

    Any TECH. themed (sleep) dreams?

    When I go through a bad bout of depression, beforehand I dream of being chased by tornadoes. Then I know it's coming in the next week or two. Does the dream cause the depression, or does the dream warn me of impending downward spirals? Now that's a question. To the OP. @MROSS I used to deep...

    What is the worst/best advice you’ve been given

    My dad after I had another serious bout of depression: "just bloody sort yourself out, it's upsetting your mum." Little did he know. I don't blame him for that. It was just my dad frustrated he couldn't make a difference. Or the classic "you're not autistic!", why because I'm not rocking in...

    What other conditions do you have?

    IBS, migraines, hyper-vigilance (probably PTSD), acid reflux, limerance and rejection sensitivity disorder, alcoholism (getting much better without it now), food intolerance's, and absolutely I feel like an alien.

    Don't Be Shy To Introduce Yourself

    I was in the exact same boat, just at a different time. My Autism Traits Take a look at the dictionary, see if helps.

    Don't Be Shy To Introduce Yourself

    Hi @Kittykatt I was relieved to get a diagnosis, but it was only part of the journey so far. I still watched videos on autism and one struck me in particular, Mum on the Spectrum, the ABC's of autism. But it is very short, and I knew then that a dictionary of traits was needed. Compiling the...

    Journalist query: Studies of "subtypes" of autism

    @Michael Marshall I did not see in the original post anything about feedback. Will the researchers give feedback?

    What video game are you currently playing?

    I have absolutely loved playing Astroneer and have amounted to some 1,000 hours playtime. But I'm currently playing Ball X Pit, and today my nephew bought me Arc Raiders to play with him. It's actually really good but without the hassle of having to be careful and watching your back. There's...

    The one thing I wish I could change

    And two hours later I'm out of the rabbit hole. I didn't even know it was a thing, I thought it was just me. So many reasons for it, all of them incredibly bad, but mostly from trauma.

    Yes strictly it's outdoors, but...

    Wow that's strict. Nothing like it is in the UK. I was stopped once for speeding, and yes it was on the motorbike, I was doing 65 in a 30 zone. Similar speed-gun too, but the officer was brilliant. He only gave me an SP30, so 3 points and £60 fine. Of course I was fascinated by the job, and...

    @Outdated I'd love to give your post a double thumbs-up. Aussie instant karma is my favourite kind, and the roar of the police cars. What are they? Certainly V probably V-8 or maybe V-12, man do they sound nice though. Someone took Mad Max literally. Another brilliant film though, and very...
