getting obsessed with a lot of different shit, sometimes in a positive way where its gonna give me a hobby or distraction, sometie just plain out unhealthy obsessed.

and being absolute trash at social interactions

No biggie, just me completely withdrawing from all routine and going super ocd on a project for several days only to leave it and never return.

I feel you on those fronts. I will be forever socially awkward. I kind of enjoy the fact that I have special interests though. Right now mine is obsessively consuming all things related to 90's alternative music. What are some of your special interests?

Hmm, the closest thing to experienental/avant-gard 90s that I listen to is Nine Inch Nails. They're more industrial but they incorporate experimental sounds. The Downward Spiral is their most popular album. Has my favorite song 'Closer' on it. The music video for it was banned at the time because it was too disturbing.

If you are interested in the origins and science and chemistry behind drugs, you might like the Vice TV show called Hamilton's Pharmacopeia.

Never fitting in. Never knowing the right thing to do or say. Poor decision making as a result. A life of complete regret.

mostly with social things i think. i also have special interests, which sometimes can be nice or sometimes is frustrating if i get too focused on something.

Haha!

I don't understand the world and I don't fit in. I'm not normal and I don't act normal and this has just given me a lifetime of trauma.

It can absolutely be traumatic to be neurodivergent in a neurotypical world. But you have every right to be here.

You must be a very proud plant parent! Me on the other hand, I killed a cactus. I should probably never have children.

Autism makes my life so horrible. The bullying (especially workplace bullying), the sensory issues, the fact that I can't do most things in my own… The only cure to autism is death.

People are so cruel. That is really heavy and I hate that that you have to go through that.

It has ruined my life. Because of it I never had a true relationship with a woman, i never had a true friend, never held a proper job and I never got a driver's license. Also autism (asperger's in my case) will be one of the 2 main reasons why I will ctb. The other one being my chronic bodily pain (bad joints and hypotonia)

 

[PimpHand]

Autism makes me unable to read social cues and unable to express my feelings in a way that people will understand.

I have Autism + CPTSD + Anxiety and I'm studying the possibility of ADHD.

Basically I have zero social network, everybody hates me and treats me like trash. I developed anger issues due to trauma and also sensory overload. Everybody thinks I'm evil and that I do it on purpose. People just can't understand, it is easier for them to not understand.
