    What are your current obsessions?

    Well, I said I was going to sleep a couple of hours ago, but for the past couple of days I've been obsessed with foxes! I can't stop looking at them! They're beautiful! I like wolves too, and owls and deer!

    Could a job in Psychology be considered 'impossible' for an Aspie?

    Thanks for the help, guys (:. I'm probably going to head towards leading therapy sessions. If that doesn't work out I can always switch over to research.

    Could a job in Psychology be considered 'impossible' for an Aspie?

    My eye contact is horrible and can only be described as physically painful to look into someone's eyes. I'm 19 and in college and it doesn't seem to have gotten any better than when I was hiding behind my mother's skirt as a kid. However my empathy level can be described as a curse, which I...

    Could a job in Psychology be considered 'impossible' for an Aspie?

    I have a Aspergers, but I am REALLY passionate with Psychology and mental health research. I've been told by more than a few people that I should try something easier because of my autism. I understand that the eye contact might be a bit of a problem and the difficulty understanding, but is it...
