    Meltdowns ?

    If I am at home and by myself my meltdowns can become violent and I will usually inflict harm on myself where if I'm in public or on the job its more bottled up and when they do happen its just a wave of emotion, sometimes more than one and its never easy to control. The aftereffects can last...

    Addicted to weed?

    I think it varies between people as everyone's brain chemistry is different. I have tried to quit, but it is difficult when you make a habit out of it. Nothing in Marijuana causes an addiction except for what chemical it causes your brain to release. Symptoms should've stopped within 72hrs from...

    Overstimulation through emotions?

    I constantly will over analyze things! I have no idea how to stop it either so I'm curious too if you have anyway for coping with that. I don't feel mad, but more so being tortured by my mind.

    Overstimulation through emotions?

    It's just weird cuz my friends say I shouldn't react the way I am to my ex and everything, but gosh it just feels like it's sent me into an extremely negative mindset. Which I know I've heard a lot of times that it'll go away and I'll be happy, but it's just getting worse what with my habits and...

    Overstimulation through emotions?

    Well would an anxiety attack or just anxiety in general cause an overstimulation?

    Overstimulation through emotions?

    I guess it's just people always say that people with ASD are overstimulated by lights, sounds, etc so I had no idea of being overstimulated by emotions would still be considered ASD or what, you know?

    Overstimulation through emotions?

    So, ever since I heard about the Intense World Theory it's definitely raised questions because I feel like my emotions are way more intense than what someone else feels and with those intense emotions it's like an overload and I usually shut down and get terribly anxious and depressed and have...

    Meltdowns

    Hey guys, I recently had a meltdown of my own while driving and I was just wondering what everyone else's is like. I just scream and yell, but I usually keep it all in until I can't take it anymore. Maybe I'm confusing a meltdown with an angry outrage? Usually it starts off as feeling...

    Should I move?

    Hi guys the story is that me and my girlfriend have been trying to move into an apartment for awhile now and the only thing stopping us is finding a job. I've been successful in getting interviews, but no job yet. I talked to the landlord (He actually got me one interview) and said how he's...

    Did I get the job?

    See they didn't ask for references or salary. They asked me when I could start and if I had any personal things to take care of (since its out of state). I'm just freaking out on whether I got it or not haha

    Did I get the job?

    So last Friday I went to a job interview out of state and the way it went seemed pretty good to me. They thought I drove 1.5hrs to see them, but I to them it was 3.5hrs to which they responded with, "Wow!". They also brought in another employee and introduced him to me (not sure how high up he...

    What stage do you feel it's was the most difficult one; childhood, adolescence, or adulthood?

    Its tough to pick really. When I was in high school I mainly kept to myself and was afraid of a lot of people. I feel like young adulthood has been rough on me because I think I act a LOT younger than how I should and other people tell me that and so the stress of everyone telling you to not act...

    Too childish?

    That's pretty much how I feel about it. I get tired of how it seems you have to play some kind of game with them. Yes! Astronaut Sloth is amazing! I can't get enough of him, but yeah I indulge in anime and I still look at action figures and try to buy 'em. I also just feel like why be a normal...

    Too childish?

    I mean, I guess it really doesn't matter. Me and my friend sorta got into it about the whole thing and he was just saying how I'll never get a girlfriend if I go around and do stuff like that. I find it really hard to make comebacks without sounding totally offensive. To me there's no in...

    Too childish?

    Recently, people have been telling me that I act really childish and sometimes think that I am homosexual because of it. I honestly don't know if they're joking or being serious, but I did have a feeling that I act some what childish. For example, me and a coworker who I get along with pretty...
