I have only really known AS existed since March.
I am not offically diagnosed but I am pretty convinced I have it. Everything fits. |

I am very nonverable.
My sisters did all my talking when I was little.
I can force myself to talk when I have to. I find when I am really overwelled I have a hard time talking. |

Why do some people not like talking about their feelings?
My mom will do it- she often times me to lie about how I feel. |

I'm 26 and I still have problems with touch as I did as a child. I don't even really hug my own family.
I do hug a good friend at work though.
You can't force it they have to want it. |

Yes. I will usually ask for help if I need it.
I have a hard time with my bed too. It is never made and it drives my Mom nuts. And I am 26.
Sometimes I can barely get myself dressed. |
