    Icon blindness - like face recognition? What's your experience (yes/no)?

    When I visit a new or infrequently used app or website that has unfamiliar icon-buttons, I have trouble "picking up" (i.e. remembering/recalling, in an instinctive/automatic way) which icon is which and what each one does. Could this be related to face blindness, i.e. difficulties in...

    Am I being irrational here?

    So idk if a lot of you know about fidgets, I mean, probably, this is an autism forum. they’re just something to fidget with, I’m fine with them, I occasionally use them. My problem is the dumb people that use them as toys and just make them in-usable for those who actually need them. It’s...

    Major work mess up

    I'm on the spectrum but I also have inattentive ADHD. Or ADD. I've been job hopping for years, I'm 28.

    It's very popular to assume that autism and gut problems are connected, but this new study shows otherwise.

    Hey folks (:

    Hey! I go by Leago. I’m a teenager and got diagnosed with autism a while ago. I’m excited to be here and discuss things with you fellow Aspies!
