So i just wanted to share some of my history in the hopes of getting some clarification on what im suffering from. The main causes of me becoming like this are abuse/bullying i think. No need to say im a monster i think that is plain to ...

Hi, Im not sure where to start but I think I might have aspergers and I guess I am looking for advice or maybe if I could explain how I feel and if anyone who is reading this can identify with me or figure out if I do have this then that would be nice. I never even knew about aspergers until I was watching a tv show and it was mentioned. I looked it ...

This is extremely long and probably all over the place. I apologize. It's five AM and I'm running on just a few hours of sleep.

I've done a bit of reading and I'm not sure where to post, as I don't quite know what's wrong with me. I chose this subforum since this condition seemed the most similar to some of what I've experienced. If anyone wants to reply, you're welcome to.

For as long ...

Just wanted to know if anyone else here has experienced this?
"In psychiatry, thought broadcasting is the belief that others can hear or are aware of an individual's thoughts."

"Magical thinking is a clinical term used to describe a wide variety of nonscientific and sometimes irrational beliefs. These beliefs are generally centered on correlations between events."

Not 100% but I'm fairly sure these fall under the umbrella of "autistic thinking".

The reason I say mild ...

Firstly I'm not sure 100% what my girlfriends problem is, but I've done a bit of research and I'm wondering if it's Asperger's.. I would be very grateful four your thoughts please..

All the online tests seem to indicate that I have aspergers. My problem is that I struggle with social cues. I did poorly on the reading the mind in the eyes and similar tests. My EQ is only 39-44 which although in the average range, is below the female average of 47. I got stumped mainly on the questions such as being able to detect how someone's feeling by looking at their faces etc.

Although ...

Hallo everybody
I m sorry in advance if any of my words will sound strange, (hopefully not) offensive, or simply unaware. I am new to this world.
I'm 42, Some months ago I met a man from another country, 43 years old. We got along together well, nothing special, we just met through a special international association for people sharing a common interest, he also hosted me a couple of nights at his house (it ...

I've always had difficulties interacting with other people, like classmates, teachers, and extended family members. Although it's easier for me to communicate with my parents, my relationships with them are rocky. When I was in elementary school, I absolutely hated going to the playground or recess, since I would always stay near the walls and watch the other kids play. My teachers always yelled at me to just go and talk to the other kids ...

This is... going to be a long one.

I've been trying to figure out what was different about me for a long time, but in the meantime I learned to imitate others as best I could--the easiest way to explain it is that I process everything through equations, which sometimes works for socialization as well, but sometimes it doesn't. Still, while I've always known that interaction doesn't work the same way for other people as ...

There's this Youtube channel that I like, its fairly well know with over 50,000 subscribers and millions of views. The content involves a woman in her 30's or 40's (I don't know) reacting to a variety of operating systems through history and attempting to achieve basic tasks in them.

I've never been diagnosed with any form of mental illness except for depression but of course, I don't say much about myself in public so... I'd ...
