    What's the difference between selfishness and narcissism? How is the decision made on what to do with yourself when you have to decide what to do next? Any suggestions on how to make info (facts) fluid somewhat?

    Sorry I'm still learning how to comment effectively in this forum. It might be jumbling my already fairly jumbled thoughts.

    They challenge for all of you is learning NT social constructs then using them to your advantage and realizing why it is advantageous to do so. That is an NT. If you know how to manipulate the social it will benefit you in life. Some people are masterminds of this. It can be charming or...

    I would strongly recommend "The Attachment Effect" by Peter Lovenheim. Incredibly foundational stuff that seems to parallel your thoughts. If you like books.

    Yeup.... Fear is powerful. It's primal. That's why it's so effective. It seems to be a lower dimension emotion that permeates across society. One of the foundational fractal patterns that could link us all as "human". Fear has been co opted tho. Rather than being a fundamental link across...

    Well that's a whole new chestnut! These concepts are foreign to me and I in no way can reply to your comment in an intelligent way yet. Let me chew on this for a few weeks. Thanks for the additional perspective.

    Thank you so much! Thank you so much!!! I LOVE hearing from you normal people! For the record... I decided when I discovered my ASD that I would fully own it and do my best explain to those who are curious. I would love to have a convo with you whenever! I will warn you tho that I am honest to...

    My genuine apologies. It is my true intention to remove any thoughts of superiority. I truly feel we are all equal! We just don't understand each other. My own experience with ASD led me to a subconscious state of superiority which was false, misplaced and unnecessarily complicated. This is me...

    I am going to respond to your thoughts in the order you wrote them. It might be a weird format but I have learned to do what works best for me and this is what currently does. I agree with you on the fact that humans are creatures of emotion. I very much agree with your perspective of how...
