Some of the treatment might include staying off the BLF
ya know, to get the Autism levels down
I know you're joking, but I actually left the forums for an entire year before I came back because I was bored, among other reasons.
Maybe leaving the forums
gave me Asperger's.
i give you a solid "maybe not"
you're at least socially inept though by your account
what do you feel is wrong with you
To sum it up:
- I can't operate socially like most others can. Missing social cues and not really able to have a conversation, like I stated above, and a few other examples, omitted to shorten the point.
- I have trouble doing simple things. I have trouble doing things period. The thought comes up but nothing'll happen beyond that. Again, eating being one of them.
- I tend to think too much about things or make them more complicated than they need to be, and in discussions, I lead others along a train of thought that can't really be coherently followed. I'm lucky that, on the internet, I can at least make things more clearer and succinct. This is an issue for me in programming because I end up stuck figuring out how to do the 'right' thing when given an arbitrary decision. This applies to a lot, actually.
- My head's just a mess of incoherent thoughts in general. I can never materialize a proper, clear thought. It's probably the reason why I talk really fast and go off on random tangents in the middle of my sentences, along with (lol look at what I'm doing right now) finding the need to add bits at the end of my statements for the sake of clarifying information and trying to remove any misconceptions... which tend to pop up anyway.
- Harsh, very severe lack of empathy and understanding of others' feelings, and an inability to feel interested at all in what happens in others' lives. I've hurt someone. We ended up splitting apart because of my overly cynical behavior that I somehow thought would help him in the long run. I'm ashamed of it.
None of these can be magically 'fixed' but I'm tired of being who I am regardless. I have a job, so I go outside often enough to gain decent enough social skills to operate in real life, but the broken core of my behavior hasn't changed at all. Ever.
Psych Central is a stuff place to take a quiz for something
Online quizzes aren't to be taken seriously anyways
It's easier to treat these sort of things at a much younger age so being 20 will screw you over by a ton
BTW they do therapy for autism
I suggest you think about ADD and bipolar disorder first though
I've thought about both. Keeping my options open here. I
am on ADD medication, and it helps to keep me awake, but not much more than that.
