    Would you prefer a painful truth or a horrible lie?

    I actually don’t understand why or how people lie and I can’t even do it.. it seems to me so theatrical and pointless and exhausting.. rather just say the truth but I’ve been told I say the truth to much. Which I don’t really understand.. So apparently people like to hear lies? Confusing..

    Emotions question?

    Hi I’ve been referred but only last week so probably in this limbo land for quite a while really. I never knew anything about autism til recently and I was very surprised the more I read it almost fitted my whole life together like glue! I even read that being gender disphoria or what ever...

    Emotions question?

    That’s interesting thank you. What would be an example of current traumatic stress at that age? As I used to also find I would just start crying for ages I. The evenings in my room for no reason? And I didn’t know why. My mom just told me at the time it was normal as she used to do it. It...

    Emotions question?

    It’s always amazed me how people laugh out loud at things like the TV etc or just in conversation.. are they faking it? If so why? It’s bizarre

    Emotions question?

    So… I’m waiting on this referral and seen as my doctor didn’t seem to what to really ask me lot of questions or even speak a lot about Autism.. (how I felt anyway during the whole half hour appointment) I have lots of questions and no one to ask other than google (which drives me mad) or you...

    Do a lot of us just like figuring out how things work?

    Yes! I repair things and also make things and I do always think about how something was made probably to deeply sometimes! Rocks and stones also fascinate me for some reason.. Well plenty of things do really

    Eating Habits

    I agree cooking isn’t much fun It’s a chore I do like other foods but just stick to what I know I’m going to enjoy and easy to make. But I can also be hungry and look and my fridge and not want anything it’s strange. It has to be a certain food I think or it’s not happening. It sounds peaceful...

    Eating Habits

    Hi I’m waiting for a diagnosis and been referred but haven’t spoken to anyone over it and never met anyone that has autism so just wondered how many of you eat the same food or nearly the same type of food every day? I’ve actually eaten the same dinner for about 4 weeks! Even though I’ve made...

    Hi I’m new to this forum I’ve recently been referred to get a diagnosis.

    Hi.. I’ve recently been referred for an autism diagnosis and I haven’t spoke to anyone about it. My GP appointment was so weird and I came away feeling upset with him and anxiety with no one to talk to. I felt he didn’t want to ask me anything really and just went off this questionnaire and...
