  • It may well be a side-effect of being on the spectrum - I worry a lot too, and I think it's due to having to analyse so many things on an intellectual level (whereas neurotypicals just 'know' they're 'right' (even when they're wrong)), but I'm also aware that no matter how much I analyse any situation I can not know everything there is to know about it, and so I worry about what it is I don't know, and is my analysis correct or just biased opinion (which, of course, it is), and how will I be viewed and judged by others if I express that opinion - just as an example of one or two of the things I worry about (I could probably write a whole book about the things I worry about).
