Been diagnosed with aspergers for about year and a half now. I'm 33. After days of seeing new people or being around people is kinda stressful and after a while i need a bit of me time... bit of winding down to relax. Music on and just listen for hours.. Feels good to just be me with music on. I can make myself feel grounded then and process things in my time.
The thing that bothers me is, if i don't have me time and leave it, i tend to get more and more moody and not wanna go out or do anything. Is this normal to feel like this? The less me time i have, i tend to feel more numb with emotions. Seems kind of selfish when reading it back. I don't like having to wind down to feel some sort of normal.
Anyone else like this.
"Me alone time" is something I find essential for processing stuff and recharging after a lot of interactions with other people. It kind of allows me to reset myself. I find music really helpful as part of this too.
Music helps me a lot, My wife is understanding in this. I do feel bad. Music is the only thing i like loud when i do it. i listen and daydream off into my own world
