    I need help understanding some temporary sensory wierdness.

    A possibly interesting side note, I have always considered myself paranormal. I suspect that my growing up undiagnosed has probably contributed to that rather unusual self image.

    I need help understanding some temporary sensory wierdness.

    Yes, I have definitely had experiences that would be considered paranormal. Although I never recall feeling like my energy is drained, my experience of these things has usually left me feeling energized, but somewhat frighten on a few occasions. Is there something in particular that you are...

    I need help understanding some temporary sensory wierdness.

    I've had this strange sensory phenomena occur numerous times throughout my life, but never as intensely as I feel it now. It feels as if my whole body weighs many hundreds of pounds. The air that I breath in feels extremely heavy as well, and it feels almost like I am breathing water. I even...

    It sounds as if I am in the same dilemma as your ex. My wife does not understand my way of understanding. To the best of my knowledge, I have never known love as I have seen it commonly presented by others. But with that being said, I would not hesitate to sacrifice my own life and wellbeing for...

    Inner conversations

    As I see it, there is nothing wrong with you having these conversations in your head. You (I) do it for a reason. We are simply mentally walking around the subject, and getting a feel for it's various possible outcomes. The problems come when we overlook this point. We do it so that we can have...

    Anyone interested in looking at and/or collecting old/vintage photos?

    Check out (http://www.abandonedamerica.us/) . I love his work, and the writing that he does for some of the pictures is often quite stirring and profound. Although his work is not particularly old, the subjects off his work usually are. There are also a number of groups and photographers on...

    Anyone interested in looking at and/or collecting old/vintage photos?

    Sometimes I'll spend hours late into the night, looking at old maps and photographs of the areas that they pertain to. I found a website for my local area, that has been the source of much fascination for me. (www.nkyviews.com) I suggest that you search for such websites, and local historical...

    An empty sense of personality

    I relate to this very much. I can't tell you who I am. I've cultivated the practice, and often allow myself to mindlessly speak aloud when I am alone. I often find myself repeating phrases that I'm sure most NT's would find troubling, or at least puzzling. Here are some that come to mind ... "I...

    Do you get accused of always having to be right?

    I once made the comment, "Sometimes it sucks to always be right." It was not received well. Usually I try to keep my thoughts to myself. But if I think that the topic is of a significant importance, then I will give my input, but only once. That is because most people are going to do what they...

    What is your newest interest or obsession?

    When I get free time around the house, or waiting in line at the store, etc. I play 2048. It occupies my mind, and I find it easier to focus on than trying to read in a noisy environment. My high score so far is 62104.

    Mind Rehearsal

    I used to have trouble answering the phone at work until I came to an understanding of what was expected of me, and I quickly learned to develop scripts by listening to coworkers on the phone. I have more trouble calling out when I don't know the expected flow or structure of the conversation...

    What was your childhood like? 2015

    Want you posted here sound similar to my childhood, but with different interests and minor details. I did not have a speech problem, but my younger brother did. He has ADHD, and was constantly causing problem for my parents. As a result, I as the good kid didn't attract much attention, and...

    Have you always felt different?

    When I was six years old and in second grade. We had gone to the library for art class, were I was finding myself getting increasingly agitated. I could not understand why the teacher would have troubled us with such a meaningless task. I look up from my project, wondering how the other children...
