    First principles reasoning and asking too many quesions

    Oh definitely. I've noticed with a lot of autistic people, myself included that we get incredibly frustrated with surface level information, and aren't shown the whole process/reason from A to Z.

    hi im ben and i need friends on my planet like me

    Hi Ben, and welcome! It sounds like you were dealt some pretty rough hands in life, and I'm glad to hear that you're overcoming those parts, and it's highly respectable that you've taken the action in getting help, and turning everything around. Life as an Aspie, can at times feel very lonely...

    My language is too mean?

    What I've learned to use, as a general rule, is if I wouldn't want it said/done to me, then the chances are excellent that it's the same for others. Even if you think they are dumb, it's best to keep it to yourself, because words hurt. I used to have your issue as well, so I'm not judging or...

    Will microchip control brain waves

    This has got to be the most well thought out theory on the mark, and how it would actually function and fulfill it's task.

    Children With Autism 'See' This Optical Illusion in a Unique Way, Experiment Finds

    I saw the blob first, and didn't know what it was. Then I studied it more, and saw the faces.

    Do you have emotional spells at times?

    I go through this a lot too. Within the past few months I've been a total mess. It's all been coming to a head lately, and getting on here helps, because for the longest time, I had no idea what this is. I also have another post up, about similar things, because it's all just been building up...

    Initiating your special interest

    This happens to me when I'm going through a burnout stage. There isn't ANYTHING that I can bring myself to do. Trust me though, it will pass. You have to kinda both take it easy whenever you can, but at the same time force yourself out of it.

    Does anyone else get haunted by movies scenes for years?

    I struggle a lot with graphic scenes in movies, especially anything having to do with SA, or just graphic violence, to the point where I fly into a rage, and can't get over it for long periods of time, even years later cropping back up in my mind. Basically, anything depicting horrible human...

    What good thing happened today?

    I have 2 things actually. I know it says "one thing" but these made me really happy. I had an actual confirmation of a miracle revealed to me today, and I got to drive again today, and I'm pretty darn close to getting my license!

    Has anyone experienced trichotillomania?

    When I was in 4th grade I had this habit pretty bad, but then kinda morphed into mouth chewing/lip biting, which I still do to this day. I sometimes pull my hair when stressed or upset, just not out.
