Autism Friendships

I was chatting with my autism specialist today and she confirmed something I’ve suspected for a while... people on the spectrum tend to get on better with others on the spectrum! I mean don’t get me wrong, I’m a social disaster on all levels, but I guess it would be nice to chat with people who share similar issues. The problem I have is that my interests are pretty niche - for example wildlife, aviation and history... not exactly the stereotypical young adult male interests. I’m guessing others share this problem... or maybe not. I dunno :-/ 

Not sure what I’m getting at but sometimes it’s good to just air your thoughts. 

Parents Reply Children
  • Geeza - you're so confused. It's not your fault directly though. ALL OF YOUR GENERATION are utterly screwed up one way or t'other. 

    It was obvious when in about 2004/5 or so you guys turned into teens. We always knew teens were a bit 'teenish' but you guys took it to another level. I realised finally at Glastonbury in 2009. The kids in late teens were all SUPER aggressive - no smiles, no good vibes, no love, AT ALL. I vowed never to go back to Glastonbury and I have been to all of them except the first. When your generation came of age the festival was full of crime, 

    It is because you lot have been neglected by parents addicted to social media - so YOU REALLY HAVE been brought up by an algorithm that works best on hate and evil... :(
