| I was wondering is it normal for a Aspie to get annoyed, overstimulated, or frustrated with everything after a while? I don't consider myself a ''weak person'' but everything ''adds up'' after a while, such as my aunt stressing me out and feeling I have no privacy, other people, going out, small amo... |

| I am ''open minded'' to a certain degree but other than that I am not ''comfortable'' going out or in the ''suburbs.'' I also at times feel that I don't have the ''energy'' or ''goals'' that many NT's do, such as even when I was in high school most of them craved the basic ''blueprint'' many kids, h... |

| I have been confusing myself lately because I don't know if it's a Asperger or emotional issue. I have found that I have to live a ''certain way'' or ''organized''. I am not a ''weak'' person but I am quick to get upset or emotional rages, issues with dating, I feel or maybe just paranoia that I hav... |

| I was always wondering and it's not that serious, but how come despite intelligence, social skills and keeping customers coming back or forming a bond are usually a must?. The job was at a Petco, he told me I was a nice guy but too quiet, serious, withdrawn, how come we are hardly giving a chance in... |

| I have noticed I get upset easily and feel ''very deeply'' in the social scene and just after a while it gets to be a lot. The other weird issue is I love women and want to and will date, but other than having a woman in my life, I don't participate much. I don't try to be ''something I am not'' I t... |

| I was wondering if this is a Aspergers issue or I can perhaps have other undiagnosed issues? I try my best to live life by a ''format'' or ''organized''. I find though that when I go out just in general people and the way society is set up stresses me out and irritates me after a while, many people ... |

| I was wondering everyone's opinion on this. I never let my boss know I was on the spectrum when I applied. I only told her when I had a bad anxiety attack and almost passed out, she completely understood and ''takes it easy on me'' because her son is on the spectrum. I was confused because I almost ... |

| If this is not allowed I apologize and will delete. I was always confused do we have issues with feeling the ''bonding'' or ''cuddle'' chemical, such as endorphins and oxytocin?. I don't know if it's my diet or I feel so much stress and anxiety in daily life, the stress hormones take over? The women... |
