I used fast cars, motorcycles, drinking beer, fighting, chasing women, and having bad relationships to try to fit into society but the real issue was I was on the spectrum.
It took me a long time to work out what the real issue was. Have you had a similar experience ?
did you up the adrenalin in your life to try and fit in ? like climbing ice mountains at night with a torch on your head !
did you drink far too much to overcome your lacking social skills ? Funny stories are most welcome as well of course we do need a laugh.
Have you made a complete tit of yourself ? lets us know please.
Did you join the army or the navy by mistake ? lets us know please.
does driving cars and/or motorcycles help calm your autism related anxiety or make it worse (eg road rage) ? lets us know
did autism cause you to be so aggressive you got arrested a lot,,,, how did you deal with it, how did your parents deal with it ?
telling jokes about your autism and autistic mistakes is most welcome

Nope ~ to get away from it all mostly but met up with others that did not fit in either, with the 'coolest' (or most functionally perfect…
They are amazing aren't they?
Greetings! No Women allowed, here, so I shall pretend that I am a Man (spits unsuccessfully) and post anyway, and laugh loudly harr harr hawh mwhah *cough* (takes a sip of wine).
Before I got hacked on…
You are funny.
Is this a kind of rebuff to the estrogen post woman only ha!!!
Although driving does sooth me anxiety make me feel like I have my own space.
yes
it is
then i started to think about men, autism and aggression,,, and my complete obsession with motorbikes. The one time I know I was truely happy was when I was riding motorcycles for fun and thrills.
Yep my car is my private space and if need be I can retreat into it.
autistic men also make very good soldiers they are 10 times better than NT soldiers after they get through training.

Really I never would of guessed.
Here in my car, I feel safest of all, I can lock all my doors.
Ha!
Plastic do you drive?
Hell yes! I've had over 40 cars - including TVRs, MGs etc.
u cant join the army if u have an autism diagnosis. But if u dont know about it and join you can have great fun ! Yea nothing better than being an a wee 125cc bike on the hills and winding roads of true countryside. Eventually I stopped when I had to get a car for work. But since my nephew got a bike and i got a spin the bug is back and i have been thinkin of getting one again. Its a good way to die after all.
So I could get car advice from you plastic?
i discovered that if I use the key fob to lock myself in I cant get out unless I use the key fob. This got me worried that if the key-fob failed ( dead battery) i wouldnt be able to get out. My solution is to carry both key-fobs.
At the end of my commute home when I put my car in the garage, I sit and I listen to the radio for couple of minutes to destress/ become mindful that I am not at work.
what do u want to know ?
