    Specific Food Addiction

    Well if you think about it, people on the spectrum are renowned for having very heightened senses, sound taste touch sight smell And well food is particularly unique for evoking all of those senses and food as a general thing is very diverse. The sound of food when cooking or eating...

    What are your current obsessions?

    I mainly become obsessed with people, not in a weird creepy stalker way, but I cross reference a multitude of ways in which you could get to know someone. For example, social media, gossip, intuition, or in person interaction, like their body language and what they talk about. People fascinate...

    Intrusive Thoughts?

    Does anyone else suffer with intrusive thoughts? My mind scares me most of the time, i?m so frightened of myself. I keep having these random violent thoughts and they make me feel sick. I want them to go away but they won?t. I?m actually rather embarrassed about it, I don?t want to be me right...

    On the telephone?

    I don't mind texting although I often find it makes me unbelievably anxious, I have to put my phone on silent because I get startled at the sound of receiving a call or text, it's so unexpected (and even if it is expected it still manages to catch me off guard, the fact the person calling or...

    Friend Envy?

    I agree with Arashi222, I can always remember as a young child getting very angry and jealous when someone would 'steal' my friend. I think it's the fact that I used to watch people making friends so easily and I was always the one who had no one but one friend. I think over the years I've...

    Todays Aspies vs. Yesterdays Aspies

    When you think about it we are actually quite an isolated society compared to the olden times, although we do have more technology that forces us to keep in touch, no one really speaks to each other face to face anymore. However I guess that in its self can be problematic, well its sometimes...

    Do you like being in charge, In control of others?

    Well I'm in a constant battle with myself when it comes to making decisions and planning things. I hate it when things don't go the way I want them to, it freaks me out unbelievably. However I'm also really unorganized and lazy, I can't figure out if it stresses me out more planning something...

    Some days I can't leave the house? Advice?

    I can easily spend days and even weeks without leaving the house, even if I want to go out, I can't. It's like I'm hit with this overwhelming anxiety and fear of going outside, for some time I've even thought I could be borderline agoraphobic. I often find I get like this when I have spent a...

    Specific Food Addiction

    I'm so glad i'm not the only one! I have always gone through weird phases of craving certain foods, I never really thought my food preference could be because of the texture of the food however now I think about it, my food choice is very much based around texture, taste and even temperature of...

    Is it just me who get distressed by a certain 'tone' of voice?

    For example when my parents are telling me about something that involves me or they're asking me a question, they use this tone of voice and it really gets me anxious and freaked out.. Does anyone else get distressed by a certain tone of voice? or is that just me?

    can you read animal's expressions?

    That always happens to me when owners tell me their pet is unfriendly and not to go near it because it will bite me or something, but they seem to love me. I think although animals are very simplistic they are very intelligent and their intuition is remarkable. I honestly don't know what i'd do...

    How much does Aspergers effect your relationships?

    Aw Thanks MumToA&D :) Um yeah Arashi222 it's nice to hear I'm not the only one who feels like this, It's also kinda sad. I suppose I'm scared that I'll never be that comfortable with other people, I suppose I'll just have to try my best. You're right if they are worth it they will understand...

    How much does Aspergers effect your relationships?

    I'm 16 and I've never been in a relationship, whenever a guy is interested and makes advances on me I always have a mini breakdown, I can't stand people touching me or giving me eye-contact it makes me feel sick. Even if I really like someone I can't bare to be close to them, plus I always end...
