Bagel's hello!

BagelSticks

Hello, Im Bagel or Nik. I have known for a while I was autistic but officially heard it all when I was 19. 

I always thought I had good social skills, I still think I do but the way I approach it is much different I realised. And I also realise I may not be as good at it as I thought I was. And I want to learn to do better and be better. Or I guess how to navigate this all.

I struggle accepting it at times but autism has affected me and ao many aspects so much that I really need to work on it and understanding it ahaha. Hence I am here. I want to learn and share my experiences etc with others in similar situations. Maybe get advice on how to navigate certain things.

I am not sure what else to really say but since this is for introductions I want to introduce myself more "properly" so.. 

I am a big gamer, I found games to be a great escape as well as just something I can truly always enjoy and something I like to think I'm good at. I also love maths and as silly as it may sound I love dinosaurs and anything paleontology related!

And yeah..thats pretty much me!

  • Hello ,

    I think things to keep your mind occupied are really helpful.

    I like the Microsoft Solitaire card app, doing all 5 variations. I'm at level 2500 on the Spider one.

    It is interesting, the more you do it the more you subconsciously pick up on the rules. Till you can do expert or higher levels. It keeps me occupied without having to think much and is not much  pressure.

    The problem with dinosaurs is I always want to know more. I also question some of the extrapolations and assumptions. I've been to Dinosaur National Monument in Utah, which is cool, as well as seeing fossilized trees in several places.
