    Have I found the answer?

    Hi. Overall from what you are saying it seems like you have identified a fair number of traits within yourself that could indicate that you are autistic. I've possibly got a couple of things to add in/ask you that may give you a few more things to reflect on. Overall, if it is concerning you and...

    Feelings in the run up to formal diagnosis

    Thanks for the contrast of thoughts guys, it's kinda what I expect with it I guess as it is quite a subjective event in life. I'll post about how it goes on Wednesday once it happens, because it will hopefully be at least a little interesting. But we'll see :D

    Feelings in the run up to formal diagnosis

    Hey people, So after a year and a half wait I've finally got my diagnostic appointment with a neuropsychiatrist (something I am particularly happy about because neuropsychiatry is an excellent speciality and the more neuro side of it sits quite nicely with me :D) coming up next week. What I'm...

    Scared to take meds

    Yeah, from my knowledge on drug stuff, here is a list of things which I hope are helpful in some way: - Serotonin allergy, as far as I'm aware, is not a thing (I've done a quick database search, and nothing related to it is coming up, instead it's linking to the theory I explain a bit later in...

    Scared to take meds

    I'm sad that you feel that way Robby, it is not nice to feel that upset. I don't think I can suggest anything in particular that other people haven't mentioned already, but I think that if you are unsure about the medication then you should speak to your doctor about it because they can try and...

    Clothing Preference?

    I generally always wear jeans (other trousers just feel uncomfortable, weird or both), a t-shirt (my current favourite one is one that states 'I find people confusing' because I like to have that stated :D), and then I prefer to wear something over my t-shirt at all times, as without that...

    OCD and the nature of autism

    I've been thinking through this recently as well. While I can't say that I have OCD (because I have not been given the diagnosis for it) I have had obsessive compulsive tendencies for a while and these got significantly worse a few months ago. Eventually the thing that I used to distinguish...

    8.6x10^10 to 1.72x10^13

    Living based on neuronal firing. That's what I like to think at least. Neural control in the end influences everything about the body. It can be argued that signalling is controlled by neural and hormonal elements, and this is definitely fair, but without the neural elements (the hypothalamus...

    Over-analyzing things

    Wikipedia has something to say about Super Monkey Ball :D Apparently Monkey Ball was an arcade game in Japan, and then Super Monkey Ball was brought out or something like that Super Monkey Ball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Also yeah, things exist that can't be sensed by those senses. I...

    Disability

    To add a fun spin into things, there are different sociological models for disability and these are ingrained into society and how we perceive disability. The three major models that I have discussed in classes previously are: - The medical model - States that a person is disabled due to their...

    Study Habits?

    I have various learning difficulties, which means that conventional methods (the best example of reading a textbook) don't really work for me, but the reason why I am studying what I am studying at the moment is that I learnt how to come up with lots of random methods that allow me to get the...

    A new AQ-test by Newsweek?

    I got 41, which is consistent with previous results. Woop woop! :D

    Veiw on people in general

    I think it depends on the level you look at people. There is a strange degree of synchronicity with a lot of people where they seem to just know what to say and do and things like that and they all seem to fit in place like pieces of a quite elaborate puzzle, however if you go a bit deeper under...
