What is/are your obsession/s?

Lanky_Runner

Hello, this will be my first time interacting with other autistic people so I’m looking forward to hearing from anyone.

I’d like to hear what obsessions and hobbies you may have. Bonus points for really niche ones, but anything goes.

Mine would be driving safety and theory. I have a special ability to judge my surroundings exceptionally well which makes me quite handy behind the wheel. I also have a copy of the Highway Code that I take everywhere, I don’t know what it is but I just find all that stuff intriguing and quite exciting. There’s a YouTube channel called Ashley Neal that I watch religiously, great if you want to improve your road safety and attitude towards driving.

Thanks for reading.

  • Well done, that’s a real cool obsession and safe too for you and other road users. I’m currently in the middle of learning to drive but haven’t taken to it so well. I think I’m too anxious.

    Anyway,
    I have a lot of obsessions but my main one is dolls. I love collecting dolls (and playing with them!) and have a vast collection of them. Some I got when I was a child but most I’m buying now I am an adult and the money. I like to build them cute little scenes, like this kitchen scene

     

    Sometimes I’ll take them out in the garden, if it’s dry.
    I try not to do that though because otherwise I spend forever afterward trying to clean them with anti bacterial wipes…

    My other special interest is writing. I like writing fantasy, fiction and historical stuff. I’m currently working on my own book and I have a few other mini projects on the go. Writing makes me happy, and I feel like I’m free in my own little world when I’m writing.

    I love your dolls! I also write and just got an idea how to continue my new story!

    Thank you! Another new doll came with the post yesterday. Congratulations on the new idea, I hope you have fun with your new story. I'm currently in a bit of a writer's block slump, waiting for my zest to return.
