    I am feeling well enough to...

    I went to an event where there were many strangers. And I had some fun even though I was pretty tired by the end of it.

    Ask A Stupid Question...

    Because then the toy is moving, obviously. My question is.. Why do people produce mugs and bowls separately when they are essentially the same thing (mugs are just taller in length but narrower in diameter so their sizes are actually roughly the same)?

    Which ASD traits do you not have?

    I am fascinated with numbers but not with dates. And I don't collect information. I don't have the energy for it. (41 on the AQ test)

    do you like to learn?

    I love learning! Especially when it has to do with relativity or interesting mathematical concepts.

    texting first?

    hello. a lot of people make a big deal of who texts first. is it actually a big deal? i usually end up being the person who texts first in nearly all of my friendships and relationships. the only reason this is somewhat bothersome to me is because im not sure if that means something. people put...

    I feel like a fraud

    I spoke about my strong suspicion of me being an aspie with a friend of mine who is not an aspie in any way. She said that she thinks its useful to think about it empathetically rather than symptomatically. What it means is that since the traits of aspies can sometimes overlap with neurotypical...

    Visual stimming with a hologram!!!

    Hellooo!! I just found out about this and its one of the most soothing things to use for visual stimming that I have ever seen!!! I'm so excited right now I just built my own and it's so pretty and nice. Have fun building your own if you want to and be careful not to hurt yourself with the...

    Asperger's and having a hard time with people's names?

    Hello! There's something I've been wondering. I have always had a hard time remembering people's names. It can be confusing for example when watching TV shows or films or reading books because I struggle with remembering people's names. I don't know the names of most of my favourite characters...

    How does it feel to be a Aspie?

    To me, its about living in a world where I don't get others and they don't get me because I communicate differently than others. A lot of people don't like the way I communicate(lack of eye contact is seen as rude for example) and I don't feel comfortable with the way a lot of people communicate...

    shutdowns vs meltdowns?

    awh that's unfortunate :disappointed: don't worry though, it doesn't sound immature. at least not in the context of a meltdown that you can't help. it is a pity though that a lot of the things aspies/autistics can't help doing are perceived as immature.

    multiple dating partners?

    I haven't dated more than one person at a time but I have dated someone who was also sort of dating someone else at a time. I was the only person they were seriously dating at the time but there were other people they were seeing. People see and understand these things differently. To me, this...

    Focus

    Yes, definitely. When I had my exams this spring, I just skipped a lot of the revision(that I desperately needed to do) because I had a lot going on in my personal life. It happens often when I have other worries that distract me. I can't focus as well and my work and studies suffer.

    i'm done for real this time

    Let's say you have 1000 boxes, you check 346 of them and they are empty so far. Does that mean they will all be? hell no. You can not know until you check them all. It's kind of similar with life. You might live a few years, decades and not be happy that far but you cant actually know that you...

    shutdowns vs meltdowns?

    Hello. I experience what I think are shutdowns from time to time. I get irritated, can't talk or find talking extremely difficult, feel exhausted when it happens. It gets better when I get to spend time on my own and stim in a preferably dark place with no sounds that would irritate me. I have...
