What "autistic" things do you find yourselves doing? I do a lot of different things which I know a neurotypical wouldn't think twice about.
One of them is making sure everything in my house is straight, so the chairs, my books and DVDs on the shelf, pictures hanging on the wall and plenty more than that.
Recently I was doing up an MG Maestro and had noticed the offside headlight wasn't seated properly and was facing a little to the side. This bothered me so much, playing at the back of my mind until finally I went out and straightened it because I couldn't cope with it not being right.
I feel like I was actually approaching a meltdown, that's how much this sort of thing bothers me.
Am I alone in being this way?
i write walls and walls of texts rambles and rants randomly all over the place loli think ive been pretty tame and super short written on this site though so i guess its only certain places i just spew out random data.this then makes people who see it think id be super sociable and talky in person but then if they saw me in person im super quiet and short in words, simple basic single word responses, yes, no, fine, ok, what, maybe. although suppose the data spew is because my mind is likely overworking and loud and has many thoughts and never shuts up so then i can just dump million word essays anywhere any time randomly online about anything. likely compensating for not saying anything in person... although i likely wouldnt be able to say things in person if i tried to dump that way, as verbal communication is primitive and inefficient, to get my mind out truly would require telepathy but then i suppose everyone would want to block my mind as it will be too loud and all over the place for them and would telepathically overload them with data lol.... i suppose this is a good thing though as our brains are basically computers meant to store data, the more data running through it and active the more better your brain is working.... well maybe, presumably... my memory can be ***, like how im always having to go back to the locker room after i had my break to see if i left my mobile on the floor and if i actually put it in my bag and locked the locker as i cant remember doing those mundane simple acts.
I am exactly the same.
I can be either and cant' tell which it will be until I get (what I think) is feed back one way or the other. If it's prose and poetry then thats different kettle o' fish.
