Tell me your experiences.

autism isnt real and youre gay

>>81470657 (OP)
go to doctor, play with toys talk with them multiple times, then she will tell your parents you have autism.

>>81470657 (OP)
can anons with brain damage and a brain tumor join this thread?

>Any anons here have actual diagnosed autism?

>Any anons here have actual diagnosed autism?
Diagnosed with PDD-NOS as a kid. ADHD was only diagnosed in adulthood
>Tell me your experiences.
I would prefer not to

>>81470657 (OP)
Of course.
What experiences do you want to know about?

>>81470708
No anon, but you can, even though you haven't accepted yourself yet.

>>81470657 (OP)
Yes, I am a high functioning autistic person. Sometimes I can hide it if it is a short encounter and I can stick to a script like for being a customer or talking to customers at my job. Once, a girl I met told me she was autistic, but she clearly wasnt... she was just a normal person. That made me angry. She had no issue understanding peoples hidden messages... What I mean is it seems you either have the gift of understanding people who mean something other than they say (i will never understand this unspoken subscript communication) or you fail, and when you fail, youre judged and avoided like the plague. Forever a weirdo.

What are your special interests? Do you hyperfixate a lot? What type of autism do you have? The Chris Chan kind or just a sperg?

I have severe ADHD, complex PTSD and Depersonalization, taking ADHD medication makes my Depersonalization worse. If I sleep more than 6 hours my thoughts will be too fast and unbearable to concentrate on getting anything done. I often have to skip a night of sleep so that I can sleep properly the next day, the only thing that keeps me sane is drawing furry porn.

I hope god doesn't need to ask why I am becoming a Satanist

>>81470840
>Special interests
I like books/reading/movies/storytelling, I periodically get obsessed with fictional settings but that doesn't really happen anymore because nobody makes any new ones, just endless sequels of old ones, I do pixel art/animation, and recently I've found interest in cooking and autism itself.

>Do you hyperfixate?
I've got a GF and I'm trying very hard to keep up a healthy balance in life nowadays, so not really anymore. Still, it's frustrating when I play vidya for a few hours and she thinks I'm 'obsessive'. Girl, you didn't see what I was like before we met, when I'd regularly game, mod, or art for 72 hours straight before I finally managed to pull myself away from it and get some sleep.
Sometimes I still get a little fixated and need to force myself to put something down/get a shit night's sleep because I can't get my mind off it, but I've mostly got it under control now.

>Cwc or sperg?
What's the difference?

>>81470657 (OP)
apparantly
last time it was aspd
I don't care

>>81470657 (OP)
not diagnosed but i'm like really awkward man so i probably have it.

>>81471005
>not diagnosed but i'm like really awkward man so i probably have it.
The avg age of diagnosis is 4-6

I'm diagnosed. Got the diagnosis nearly 20 years ago. I'm in my late 30's now.

I'm pretty much a hermit. I get SSI. Never had a job at all. Don't drive either. Never really had friends or a girlfriend, but it's not like I ever tried very hard for those things, or wanted them very much. Some girls tried to flirt with me in high school, but I didn't flirt back. I'm not capable of doing that shit.

Now I spend my days high as a kite, everyday. Why not? I don't have shit to do. Being dead to the world in my cozy bed, and drowning within myself can be quite blissful.

I know I'm a worthless, autistic NEET, but life could be a hell of a lot worse than it is. I'm grateful.

>>81471014
ok but i'm like really awkward and shy so i prob have it. autism is a spectrum man pls don't be ableist.

>>81471014
Not even close. There are A LOT of people going undiagnosed primarily due to doctors/psychiatrists/psychologists being garbage at their job. The vasy majority of these so-called professionals, who are expected to be the people to catch it and refer for a diagnosis, still believe myths about autism from the fucking 80's. The only people who get diagnosed at that age are ASD-3 boys who are literally so sperged they just punch everything and can't talk. Even people who struggle to act normal slip through far more often than they're caught purely because these people are shit at their jobs.
You can literally list autism symptoms to their faces and they'll prescribe fucking antidepressants instead of connecting the dots.

>>81471017
I was probably in the same situation five years ago, anon. Now I'm looking at getting my first job in a decade. I'm actually kind of excited. Disability employment place is supposed to talk to the boss and explain that they shouldn't fire me just because I don't make eye contact or smile.

OFC I'm still gonna document and record everything because neurotypicals are neurotypicals, and expecting them not to screw you over for being autistic and existing is kinda like locking yourself in a cage full of starving wolves and acting surprised when they start eating you. They pull any shit and I'll be ready to threaten discrimination and wrongful dismissal.

>>81470657 (OP)
I have diagnosed autism, but I am not a colossal retard like some of the anons here.
I still get bitches.

>>81471141
What you do is at first you agree with everything they say, anything they say that you did/didn't do you say sorry I'll do it now / try again sort of thing. They're orders will be illogical so just keep agreeing with everything.
Then when you've been there for a while you can start using malicious compliance. Which is your real superpower

>>81471178
>Say sorry
>When I haven't done anything wrong.
>Be a two-faced cunt.
>Agree with illogical shit.
Not the kinda man I will ever be. Not even a choice. Couldn't do it if I wanted to. Guess that's the type of autism I have.

>>81470769
People that communicate indirectly are pussies, bullet dodged

>>81470657 (OP)
I have autism but I don't really know what you want me to say

>>81471201
This guy gets it. Fuck cowardtypicals and their terror of actually saying what they fucking mean/want.

>>81470856
How does it work with autisim and ADHD? My doc says there is something and we did some tests but the results will be discussed later so i dunno. Both are in question in my case but from how he speaks i have the feeling that he thinks only one can be the case.

>You can literally list autism symptoms to their faces and they'll prescribe fucking antidepressants instead of connecting the dots.
Mine literately told to my face "From the first time we met i have noticed autsim" and still gave me SSRIs instead of doing *anything* else.

>>81470657 (OP)
>Any anons here have actual diagnosed autism?
Asperger.
>Tell me your experiences.
Social life was shitty when I was a kid and now after university it's nearly non-existent. It wouldn't bother me if it didn't mean it's hard to find woman to have family with. At least apparently I'm good at what I do at job and I'm not as pathetic as I was as a kid.

>>81470657 (OP)
I only visited shrink once. I despise them. I would not have any benefits from that diagnosis.

>>81471017
They even give me free healthcare and dental. Being an autistic retard definitely has it's perks if you live in the right places.

Trannies ruined my chances to get a boyfriend. First by lowering trust on the internet. Second by the fact that many autistic guys have become trans. I have no where to go on the internet. It's all hostile.

Neurodivergent but not autistic. I'm pretty sure my dad is, though.

I really just want friends. And only sometimes. Most of the time I'm reading, ignoring the world and everyone in it. But when I get the itch to talk to someone it hurts. I know it's unfair, you have to do "maintenence" with friends, it's give and take and you should be there even when you rather be reading. You can't just expect another person to only be there when you want them. I'm pretty emotionally stable, not a crazy fuck like most on this board. But my obsessive special interest is pretty bad, worse than most I've seen. I don't shower, don't eat much, definitely don't leave the house. Really I am a machine that reads shitty xianxia novels. Then I get moments like this every five years where I realize "woah I want to talk to someone, anyone, and have no one around, this sucks". I go onto 4chan and bait and troll on some threads, then end the night with a rant about my life. It's worse now because the internet seems way more hostile than when I last checked it, it seems gender relations has completely deteriorated and we've got some really low trust. Besides that all I've seen is coom, which I cannot relate to in any way or direction. Where do you go as a millennial autist that only knew 4chan from nearly 20 years ago?

>>81471728
I mean if you're baiting and trolling, you lose any right to complain about the internet being hostile.

>>81471784
I resorted to baiting and trolling after seeing sincerity getting me hostility. I accepted that I might as well control the hostility. Now they attack the mask instead of me.

Diagnosed ASD and SzPD at 16
Made me realize things about myself that I never grasped
>tell your experiences
I have too many
My schizoid disorder is the one that keeps acting up Moreso than my ASD

If thread is still up in a few hours, I'll post my stories

>>81471802
Okay, that one got me in the heart. Guess I've had my own masks on here.
>Where do you go
You mean other than here? There's discords, but those can be kinda hit or miss. The people in them tend not to have the same sense of humour as us. You'll have to hide your power level.

diagnosed at 12, spent 21 years of life being a friendless spastic, learned their ways, became one of them and had sexo, now a friendless spastic again at 24 because I cant be bothered

They ARE saying what they mean, they ARE communicating effectively, YOU are the problem, this species literally evolved over the course of tens of millions of years to be able to read eachother's non-verbal communication and because YOU PERSONALLY are completely incapable of this it's the entire rest of humanity who are wrong ?

We need to go back to beating autists until they learn to memorize facial cues.

>>81471880
Nigger they literally say the fucking opposite of what they mean.
Buy a dictionary faggot.

>>81471927
Just because you can't fucking read doesn't mean the words don't mean anything, I am so beyond fucking tired of people with a literal disability who are incapable of doing something the rest of humanity does innately trying to pretend it makes them superior.

You are literally broken.

>>81471880
>>81471946
No, that's just your shitty culture being full of insecure people pleasers who can't communicate professionally or effectively.

>>81471506
And I do have some things I'm proud of. Like, I can keep house. I do dishes and keep my living area tidy enough. I'm not one of these types of autists, or just single men in general, who just throw their trash and shit all over the floor. I DID grow up in a house where we did that, and I had to unlearn it. Now seeing that kinda shit just makes me angry.

I've also gotten over hygiene problems I had as a kid. Now I enjoy my showers.

It's probably not much, but when you're in my position, you take self esteem where you can get it.

>Normalnigger can't handle high-T autistichads existing.
Go discuss the weather with your own kind, less evolved lifeform.
Wait sorry let me translate that for you.
I find you very interesting.
Your contributions to this thread are fascinating.
Please stay and continue.
Definitely do not rope yourself.

>>81472042
>high-T autistchads
>people who complain about being bullied at work because they can't read facial expressions

Whatever you have to tell yourself (but keep it to yourself)

>>81472192
That really was the best you had, wasn't it?
Next you'll pull the
>This isn't worth my time!
C'mon NPC, if you're gonna come in here at least come to play.
But I guess that's all I expect from a human-shaped animal that can't even think for itself. Just follows it's scripts and it's social hierachies through life.

pic is an actual boy holy shit, did not know Chainsaw man has femboys in it.

Yeah, but only recently been diagnosed in the last year. My experience only really started to get harder once I grew a bit older (uni and first starting a job) when I found the balance of professionality and fun personalities really hard to juggle. But its also when I started to learn what it was that overstimulated and overwhelmed me which helped to avoid those situations.

Growing up my parents were always really loving, and part of that love was teaching me right/wrong and how to be a functioning member of society, so household tasks havent ever been an issue for me since theyre routine.

i got diagnosed when i was in highschool since my parents had their own personal suspicions about it. i did some test thing at the school and they said i exceeded the criteria for autism, went to my doctor and they also agreed with it. and i had to do some group therapy thing for awhile. i had difficulty coping with it for awhile, but i managed to somewhat accept it. nothing much has changed for me outside of that

>>81472296
>teaching me right/wrong and how to be a functioning member of society
how is a parent forcing their child into chores a form of love?

>>81471994
I also have some cooking skills, because I helped my invalid grandma cook when I was a kid, and I learned that way. I can read pretty well. I recently finished Moby Dick. Heard it could be extremely hard to read, but I got through the whole thing.
