    I know what you mean. Especially while working 45 hrs a week, it is so hard to keep it tidy..
    Need to lose 3st.. and keep it off this time.

    Does st mean stone? That seems like a unwieldy unit for measuring a human body...

    It was common in Australia too before we went metric, a standard imperial measurement, 1 stone = 14 pounds. By rights I should be around 11 or 12 stone, not 14. The original term comes from the most convenient weight for trebuchet ammunition, human heads are just perfect for that. :)

    None of us can say for certain, but what symptoms cause you to consider ASD as a possibility?

    Noise sensitive
    socially anxious
    notice every little detail and smell (smells can make me feel sick)
    find it hard to filter out noises and concentrate when people are talking to me
    Plus I feel like I am an alien sometimes and just have no idea how to behave like a normal human, so hard to describe.

    ASD sounds like a good possibility. If not, I think you probably have Sensory Processing Disorder at least. That said, I am not a psychiatrist and can not diagnose. This is just my personal opinion as someone who has read up on these conditions quite a bit.
