    DLA TO PIP STRESSED

    I hope you get your PIP. I think you're entitled to take someone with you to the interview if that would help.

    A constant need for validation and attention

    I honestly don't know if it's an ASD thing but I know I feel the same way and when I don't get the validation I feel like I'm not liked and am alone and get really depressed. It matters to me more with some people than others though. I get attached to certain people and want their constant love...

    Autistic traits?

    I've got the same two diagnosis (schizoaffective and autistic traits) I'm not sure what to make of it either. I take it to be the same as high functioning ASD.

    How do you cope with being snubbed?

    The more I care about the person the more it hurts but I'm so bad at personal relationships the more I care about someone the more likely I am to mess things up [emoji17]

    Cause of issue with eye contact??

    Sometimes it's fine but sometimes it's too intense and I have to look somewhere else.

    An empty sense of personality

    I can also relate to this empty feeling. I try to fill it with God. My religion is important to me.

    High IQ

    Does anyone else find that people are confused by their high IQ? I think people look at me and my life circumstances and think that I'm a bit slow when actually my IQ scores around 130 on a bad day (139 is my best score, not a genius but not bad either). So I get treated like an idiot by...

    Follow Up - NT F with Aspie M - FWB - confused

    Please don't have sex with this guy it's the worst thing you could do for you emotionally. I agree with the comment by ancusmitis even though it hurts like nothing else. But if you decide you still want to see him at least put yourself in control and establish boundaries. You're not here for his...

    A crush ...that dreadful feeling?

    I absolutely know what you're talking about. I get almost the same feelings. To make it worse I'm a mature straight woman who seems to have developed a crush on an older woman! I'm sure she doesn't feel the same about me, in fact I'm so bad at keeping relationships that I know I've upset her...

    Should you tell a girlfriend/boyfriend that you have aspergers?

    I think if i had a real relationship and it's going to last I'd want him or her to know and understand because secrets would be bad but it shouldn't matter. I'm awful at personal relationships though and nearly always find a way to mess things up totally sooner or later. Mostly sooner. So I...

    Are you religious?

    I'm due to be baptised, confirmed and received by the Roman Catholic Church at the year's Easter Vigil. It's been a big decision for me. I have always believed in God since I was little but was not bought up religious. Recent events have given me a new perspective. When I started going to...

    Long Term Relationships

    I think I like them because they get me. I can just be myself with them. Usually I find it really hard to be relaxed and talk to people so when I find someone I can be open with I guess I become attached.
