and secondary obsessions/special interests are also always on the go, but change:
ASD being the main one at present. But eventually it will die a quick death to be replaced by another. the cycle goes on and on.
the main special interest/obsession has been with me since early childhood and is as important as breathing and sustenance. it shall no doubt continue until the day i die.

A lot of trial and error. The purple lines are all-stops service, whilst the green ones are limited-stops routes. They're the most useful for visitors, for instance. It's an attempt to simplify what is an impossibly complex, and largely inadequate, system. |

Oh me too. I read countless books. I also had this software program about dogs. I had my wall covered in dog pictures too.
Currently: Harry Potter, photography, drawing manga, writing screenplays, film, music (Thursday, Funeral For Friend, Anberlin, etc), stage lights and I'm staring to get into psychology. Probably this forum or anything related to autism too. |

My main special interests are I Love Lucy, Cedar Point and their roller coaster statistics, neuropsychiatric disorders (especially AS, OCD, and bipolar I mania), and A Beautiful Mind. I also have lots of lower-level special interests that don't really qualify as being an official Asperger's special interest, in that they don't have the extreme intensity of focus as the ones I've listed above. The ones I listed at the top are the "true" AS special interests, the ones that I'll ramble on and on and on about if given any opportunity.
