    Depression and doing nothing

    My depression feels fueled by problems in my life like high functioning autism and failed relationships that I haven't figured out how to come to terms with. It's definitely a struggle to figure out and I feel your pain. If I ever try to develop "good" habits like sleep schedule or getting off...

    Depression and doing nothing

    This definitely jumped out at me because I could have almost written the same thing. I used to have more minor depression and anxiety and whether it was a coincidence or not I've always gotten worse on medications. Specifically Welbutrin actually had me in the psyche ward of a hospital for a...

    Anyone else terrified of driving?

    I have panic disorder and driving on the highway is a trigger for some reason. So I've become rather afraid of driving, especially on the highway. I also have sensory processing issues so that might be partly related. I guess I don't have too helpful advice because I basically just avoid the...

    Bird watching or video games?

    My job for three years from '11 to '13 was surveying birds in Minnesota so I did a lot of bird watching back then. I haven't really done any for the last few years though. I wasn't very good with visual identification, maybe even partly due to my sensory issues with ASD. I still wonder how...

    Anyone else have comfort items?

    I'm 31 and I have stuffed animal, Piggy, I've had since I turned 7. He is still next to my bed. Especially when I was a kid I went everywhere with him. So to me it's normal.

    Dexter!!

    I actually had the same reaction to Dexter when I watched it, though I was 23 when I started watching it. I really did identify so closely to the way he fakes things. I'm interested in knowing which seasons he likes because seasons 1-4 I really liked and were really important to me but for...

    Your favourite videogame soundtracks

    Your favourite videogame soundtracks

    It's so hard to choose there's a lot of good video game music out there! But off the top of my head these are a few of my favorite video game songs!

    What’s With the Good Morning Thing?

    Now that I'm thinking about it I can't remember ever saying good morning to anyone. I guess it hasn't particularly bothered me when other people say it to me but it does seem unnatural enough to me that I don't say it. I always just say hi. One greeting that does drive me nuts is "how's it...

    What makes you happy?

    Playing my favorite games (I have a lot of favorites but some that come to mind recently are Skyrim, Ni No Kuni, Metroid, Zelda, Deus Ex), doing my yoga and exercise routine, seeing friends when I'm in a comfortable state of mind, watching The Simpsons and other shows or movies, listening to my...

    Abandoned by AS boyfriend, is this common??

    This wasn't directed at me, but in my experience, I'm a little ashamed to admit, I felt a lot of relief when I broke up with my girlfriend. I think I mentioned a big part of it was feeling like I was powerless and always trying to figure out what to say and do in response to her cues and not...

    Abandoned by AS boyfriend, is this common??

    I don't think you should have to feel like you should have "educated yourself" or done anything differently. Maybe he deserves some understanding and even sympathy if his struggles with AS led him to behave the way he did, but it doesn't mean it was ok or excusable. He treated you poorly...

    Very Restrictive Interests?

    I'll probably play TP then! Since I'm not liking WW that much I was thinking maybe I wouldn't risk starting another but it sounds like TP is worth it. I played it like 11 years ago when it came out but only remember snippets. I've never played BoTW or ALBW, though if I ever invest in a switch...
