    Problems with articulation

    Same here. I have blown my English professor's minds with my papers that I write, but when I speak directly I think I come across like a moron.

    How do you feel in natural environments?

    I have recently begun jogging at a local cemetery, and I find it SO peaceful & relaxing! It makes me feel like a kid again...sitting in the grass, running outside, looking at birds, etc. :) A while ago, I didn't like outdoors too much (mainly because it was away from my computer), but I have...

    Problems with articulation

    I have this problem too, and it does NOT help when the person you are speaking to says, "Well! Spit it out!!!". I might as well just walk away at that point! :/

    Do you have any disorders that are linked with Asperger's Syndrome?

    Re: Do you have any disorders that are linked with asperger's? I have dealt with depression for as long as I can remember. However, I found that exercise helps relieve the intensity of it. It is very manageable when I'm working out on a regular basis. I go through cycles of having sleep...

    Meltdowns and Shutdowns

    I have both. On a *good* day I'll only have a shutdown, but on a bad one...it'll be an all out meltdown.

    Are you currently employed?

    Just something that keeps me intellectually engaged in interesting topics. I'd love to end up working on my campus in some capacity.

    Are you currently employed?

    I'm 31, but a fulltime student. I'm just determined to finish up my degree...I refuse to settle for some unsatisfying job. I have worked plenty of jobs, but hated most of them. I get bored easily as well..so I'm hoping that after I finish my degree I can be more choosey.

    Problem with friendships...

    When I was a kid, and teenager I used to get overly attached to the few friends I had. i would get possessive, and jealous if they wanted to have others friends. After entering adulthood, and being hurt by countless friends, significant others, coworkers, bosses, etc...i've become someone who...

    feeling isolated and lack control of my life

    I do the same with reading. i start one book, add another, and another, and another until I'm overwhelmed and do not finish any of them.

    What are your sensory issues?

    Sudden loud noises, unexpected touching (esp. an unsolicited hug), strong light, I'm super sensitive to barometric pressure changes (will cause migraines, sinus issues), crowds will cause me to meltdown. Oh, and someone mentioned smells...the smell of Eucalyptus drives me mad!

    Habits you have

    I chew my lips & peel them...this is a relatively new habit...just started it about two years ago. I also will ocassionally get the urge to peel off my pinky toe nail completely. I will repeat something until I'm acknowledged...and get louder. Along those lines...and this gets on my nerves...
