A life inside an aspies mind

Just thought I'd like to share what's going on in my mind when I'm alone if I'm not doing the things I enjoy! As I am a aspie, I also want to know what else goes on in everyone elses minds when for example they;'re are walking somewhere on their own etc.

When I'm walking on my own everyday to work and on the way back home and even during work at times, my mind just wondes off to a imaginary worold especially when I'm on my own! I just have my earphones in, listen to linked video game or cartoon related music to match the situation in my imaginary world, I tend to not notice anyone else like the people arounf me so it's very difficult to spot people I know sundenly bumpng into them etc. If it's a video game I can't wait for or a video game I really like that I'm currently playing, I just imagaine myself in that game having superpowers etc with music to match to go with it to make the emotions more stronger! It feels so calming and relaxing cos I know that imaginary world is where I fit in best! My mind only wonders off to that place when I'm walking to work, outside on my own etc. It just varies depending on what type of cartoons, videogames, interests I am really loving at the current time then it switches! Don't know if anyone else has this feeling as well.

I also just extremely LOVED The LEGO movie when I watched it yesterday! It just matched my imagination perfectly and I can't wait till I buy it and add it to my Blu Ray collection! I forced my friends to go and see it as well, they didn't really want to because it is a kids movie but I really wanted to see it, I'm 22 years old but when watching the movie, it just completly matched my imagination! Like I could relate to the character and understand how his mind was feeling, because he was following instructions, simular to me following routines, trying to be nice to people, me too, but then I really felt his pain when that bad cop showed him that video, you thought you fitted in really well with everyone, being nice, thinking they'll know you and treat you like one of them in the end he say them askign who is he, something like he's not that normal person or weird, can't exactly remember what they said but I could totally relate to him! Then when they said his mind is blank and full of random imaginary thoughts, I could relate, then I always think I'm the special, being the hero etc, you just have to believe. I could get totally attached to a movie like that main character is me! I hope you get what I mean, just wanted to express this out there because I never have seen anyone like me and really hope there is other aspies mind who is 22 what works like mine! I just don't want me to be the only one!

Now after I watched that lego movie and I completly loved it, my imaginationis focused in that and thinking about the whole movie again, all the phrases, quotations and the world! My mind always follows that cycle of imagination pattern!

  • It's easy to live in an imaginary world as an Aspie up to a certain age.  But I think it's much easier the younger you are.  When your life grows responsibilities such as family etc. it's way harder and your mind instead, is just filled with the stress of what you have to do and getting through day-to-day and the imagination seems to only be in your dreams.  Or when watching a film.
