****I'm not english speaker

I want to know, I can't go to terpaist. 

I did all the web test, I read, hear, yes it was in my childhood, efect my life, the question is- what.

must say I don't want to change, I never did. I'm not like others - they have problem, they should try to change. I have almost every deatail I read, but not problem to understand jokes.. I read somewhere that some aut' have problem to reconize faces - I have this, I can't remember faces. I will lost in my way, I will drive the same place and will lost the way. it's funny. no friends, eating same food every day, all my life someone will say you speak too load or too quiet, I speak too much - but isn't it becouse I have no one to talk?

after I read and read I notice I speak like I'm in a tv series. I copy others to know how should I talk or write. I remeber people asking if everything ok "becouse you don't look at me". I learn I need to look at them. I feel and behave like a child. I never knew how people know what to do or say (becouse thay have friend??), why they want to do. 

ect

I'm not sad. till I read. I wish I never read about auti' becouse now I wonder what the others think about me. I start notice things, instead thinking I'm special. I can't imagen anymore.

I will never ask for "help", why are you agree to be in lower class? can it be something else, what if every person in the world will check imself maybe it's fil to all? whats the big issu to speak load or quiet...

  • Hi Pupi and welcome. As a non English speaker you did well writing how you feel about autism. There were only a few sentences that are difficult to understand:

     

    why they want to do.

    - do you mean that you don't understand why people do some things? Or do you not understand what they want?

    I start notice things, instead thinking I'm special

    - Does this mean that you now think you are special because you notice things that are different in you than in other people? Or did you think you were special before, but now think you are not?

    I can't imagen anymore.

    - What can't you imagine? That you are the same as everyone else?

    what if every person in the world will check imself maybe it's fil to all?

    - The word fil is not English. Did you mean that maybe it fits all, that everyone might think they are autistic if they do the tests and read about autism?

    Please do not be upset by my questions - I just want to fully understand, I am not criticising you.

    I understand what you mean about feeling different after realising you are autistic. But we are not "lower class" - we are just different. But everyone has different personalities, skills and things they have problems with. I also agree that it should not be a problem if someone talks loudly or quietly. 

    I hope that this community forum helps you.

  • Hi, thank you for your reference.
    I will write with Google Translate.

    why they want to do -- why do they even want to do all this

    I start notice things, instead thinking I'm special -- I started to notice things about myself, from what I read. Noticing something is like suddenly getting punched in the stomach. It makes you stop. And what I meant was that before I didn't think everything was normal, but I knew I was a little different. Now I notice things and it's like getting punched in the face. Being different can depend on the environment, on the mood. Now I'll always think the problem is just me.

    I can't imagen anymore -- 

    I have no explanation for this. But not to be like others.
    I don't want to think that everyone who said something about me was right.

    I must say, there was a time when I was in a management position. I was good at it. People liked me. I knew all along, you don't have to read about autism for that, that they are not friends in the normal sense of friends.

    Back to imagining, I always dreamed of superpowers...

    what if every person in the world will check imself maybe it's fil to all-- That's a typo. I meant fit.

    Why would I be upset, I was too lazy to translate :) even now it's Google and not GPT.
    I'm not sure it's autism. That's why I wrote the sections I saw that were appropriate. Maybe from experience here someone can ask a question that is essential to know.

  • Thank you for your reply. 

    Did you take this test?

    https://psychology-tools.com/test/autism-spectrum-quotient

    It's called the AQ50 and if you get a high score you are almost certainly autistic. This is used in UK by the professionals who assess people for autism. I don't know if it's available in other languages - what language do you speak?

    If you are still not sure whether you are autistic, you can still talk to us and ask more questions. Everyone is welcome here.

  • I apologize, we were probably talking about different things. I meant a single case that happens, at the age of toddlers. You're probably talking about a pattern of behavior, and at a later age. Obviously, if it's something that continues and repeats itself, it doesn't matter what the age is and you need to find out if the child is suffering and how it can be improved. Also check what the reason is so that it doesn't continue or his feeling improves.

    Yesterday I saw that there are a lot of views so I want to delete my profile. It's very pleasant here but I feel like a rat in a lab.
