    Hi everyone

    Hey there SomeRandomName! Looking forward to seeing you around.

    Has anyone else decided they don't want children?

    It doesn't help much when the majority of people reproducing are the ones who shouldn't have.

    Are you bothered by particular stereotypes?

    I'm glad you're helping out this person. Having just one person who is there, who is not encouraging your use, but still not brushing their hands off of you. Someone who doesn't say "why can't you just quit", but instead shows you they're there just because they want to. That can mean a world of...

    Has anyone else decided they don't want children?

    I used to think I would have to have children at some point in life, because that's what life is supposed to be. The older I got the more scared I was of whether I would be able to protect the child from all of the evils of this world. Then I was scared if I could ever care for the child because...

    Willis-Ekbom Disorder?

    I always shake my legs all of the time. I don't know if it's ADHD, anxiety or something else. My leg shaking is persistent throughout the day and night, ever since I can remember. People often comment on it too.

    Your funny asd behaviours.

    Things lining up or fitting in is indeed very satisfying to watch.

    When did you find out that you were supposed to interact with people?

    I think this is something I go through repeatedly. It does involve panic and frustration on my part. It's not until I see now how people around me have had friend for such a long time and that they talk to each other at other times when we are not together that I realised it comes from interaction.

    Your funny asd behaviours.

    Are you implying that size does not matter? :p Bees fascinate me more though. They're so advanced, yet beaten by glass.

    Complex image processing.

    I guess I'm talking more about picking up selective information, not zoning out in this case. For instance when I'm scrolling through a page looking at memes and come over an inspirational quote, I will overlook it completely because I don't see anything related to the information I'm seeking...

    Complex image processing.

    This has always been a part I considered with my ADHD. Just quickly look for whatever information that is neccesarry and avoid the rest of it. But I don't think you're talking about the same thing. Unless it could be that you were distracted.

    Are you bothered by particular stereotypes?

    Although I agree with most of these I would say the one that bothers me most is that addicts don't want to get out of addiction. You can enjoy the drugs, but addiction is a miserable thing. I have worked with them, lived with them, and been among them. We judge addicst too quick because we can't...

    Your funny asd behaviours.

    Ah! I was thinking of this yesterday. I had this habbit of twirling my hair in to little dreadlocks for the longest time. I still do it occasionally when very stressed. I was thinking it might have been a stim. I remember many many haircuts because of my hair tangling up. I don't remember how I...

    Losing interest in "adult" content.

    So you're looking for another dimension of it to make it more complete. It's like you've already seen it it's all the same, you need it to have more flesh for it to even be tasteful. I don't watch movies really. Violence doesn't really bother me, but I don't see the point either. My ex would...

    Your funny asd behaviours.

    So ants are a thing here? I remember during my test I was asked about playing with worms. I had a weird fascination with garden snails. I would go out and find where alle the snails were after the rain and run back home to fetch salt to disolve them. It wasn't funny, but I never felt bad about...

    How do you respond to Compliments...?

    I generally get very weird with compliments. I don't understand how to respond and I usually don't respond. I do realise it can be percieved as rude and a lot of people are put off by it. It also depends on the compliment I recieve. Example: "You're beautiful" - I had no active part do with...
