Hi everyone, I recently found out from my psychiatrist that I possibly have Aspergers. I've been doing some research and found a few things are spot on. Though I'm also the type of person to convince myself I have a rare disease from Indonesia . I'm more interested in discussing the things that are inconsistent and seeing if I've simply been completely misdiagnosed.
-I do not have any addictions. I'm too lazy to keep up the maintenance of an addiction. This includes drugs (medicinal and recreational), caffeine, cigarettes, and even cheese.
-I easily recognize faces, sometimes with people who I have no personal connections with
-I can keep eye contact, but only with brown eyes
-I LOVE talking. I will talk for hours if I can.
-I'm hyper-conscious of my hunger and fatigue.
-I'm extremely empathetic. It can range from me watching peoples reactions and gauging their mental state, to physically feeling what they are in that moment (panic attacks, stomach dropping, heart racing ect.)
-I'm rather aggressive with authority and was diagnosed with Oppressive Defiant Disorder as a child.
These are the actively contradicting symptoms from what I've read up about Aspergers on the net. I'm curious if these would be enough to make the accuracy of the other symptoms irrelevant.
Thank you so much for reading
