How do you relate to patterns?

[RemyZee]

The whole thing about autism and patterns. Do you notice, think in, exist in, have memories of patterns and how they go together? Do you see them in systems environments people? Are there patterns that annoy you? Make you happy? Have meaning to you? Is it a stereotype that autistic people notice them while others don't? paaaaaa-terns.

Everything is patterns.

I absolutely notice patterns...it is how I learned how to read sheet music for piano without vocabulary for anything and almost no explicit teaching...I still lack vocabulary for most music things.

Pattern-matching is fundamental to my thoughts. Although a lot of the pattern-thinking/matching/recognition just sort of happens in the background, I don't look for patterns and I couldn't tell you how it works ...its just sort of happens without a lot of conscious manifestation in my typical "mental
virtual reality" (basically "mind's eye" but broader).

My whole life is patterns. Everything I do. I see patterns everywhere. I look for them, I try to understand them. Many are too complex to do that. All my daily activities are patterns. I feel very wrong if a pattern is not there. Like the world does not make sense, something is missing.

Agreed. The essence of learning for me is finding the patterns.

I see patterns so well that I see them in random events.

Sorry, what did you say?
