The advantages of my autism are... (Whinge free zone)

A+B-C

Whats your advantage?  One of mine is the ability to do a very rapid data mine on a subject in under an hour on the Internet and sound like I know what I am talking about afterwards... Oh your into candle making!  Crack a few wick jokes, wax eloquently and remember the info for ever, even though I cant remember where I left my keys!

  • I have a really good and vivid imagination plus memory and I'm quick to understand how things work.

    So I came up with a mental exercise to entertain myself mostly ''Sit down and think it out'' 

    For example I take a toaster and I start thinking how it's build inside, how it's connected so it works, what materials are most likely used etc. Nothing to complicated, I'm not that good. And I even manage to come up with close aproximations to how the things are really made sometimes, if I miss some understanding than I google it up read, and so on

    Unfortunately when I'm anxious and stressed my mind is try to apply that exercise to figuring out humans, and that's a nightmare labirynth
