| Do you find that you end up hanging out with women anyway? Hey Underwater well I'm glad you found the previous thread relatable, I was hoping for that kinda. It was funny my family got on really well afterwards, all seemed to elevate their moods after the test I gave them. Haha My Best friend/compl... |

| "at some point pattern recognition", This was what the original Psychiatrist who diagnosed me said, I didn't tell him that is what I feel was an intense intuition reaction, which I obviously use my Psychology knowledge to butress my understanding, because I'm not bloody psychic! (In regard... |

| Hey all! if you read my signature, that basically sums me up. I apologize for my poor punctuation and grammar, I missed a lot of school! So I made an earlier post about Hyper-Empathy and Autism?: https://wrongplanet.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=304240 As an unfortunately misguided and self-pointed Soc... |

| What do you mean by best 7 of 12 symtpoms? And I'm well aware that no two persons are alike, but Asperger is a syndrome, and a syndrome has a specific set of impairments, otherwise it wouldn't be a syndrome. So my questions is, what is it that all aspies have in common? Perhaps it is the deep feeli... |

A flower does not represent the whole typicality of the plant world, a planet doesn't represent the whole typicality of the universe, a man does not represent the whole of homo sapiens, behaviourists don't represent the whole of psychology, nor Luther... |

| I'm more interested in people than say Computers or other machines or other potentially geeky things. Surprisingly I am pretty good at working out how people work, not however because I want to be socially adept, just its always been a skill of mine, or ironic special interest! That said as it says ... |

| Yeah , very thought provoking thread indeed .. Incidentally another one of my oddities is that I can immediately tell if someone I know friend / relative or colleague is feeling sick / worried or whatever . I think at I pick up on DIFFERENCES because my life is full of routine and sameness . Does t... |

I'm hyper sensitive to most things mentioned , including a few few types , sounds , textures and touch , other people's emotions etc etc .. My worrying trait is that when I see sad or traumatic news story or news vi... |

| Yeah I'm like this too, with music, TV series, don't get frustrated though, books too. E.g. my English literature lesson today I empathised to such a degree with the characters that my understanding of the text was "excellently spot on". However I spent the lesson rocking back and forth, p... |

| Hey I've noticed that a few of you here are nonverbal, if that term is not something people like to use on wrongplanet.net then I will change it but for the purposes of this post I will use it, until notified otherwise. I have been diagnosed with higher functioning ASD and for me I could always talk... |

| Hey underwater well like you I can't maintain my own perspective, just drives me 'crazy' questioning my sense of self, made me believe I had disorders I did not. Well for me I have developed this in part innately but also I believe environmentally. I.e. When I was younger I was severely bullied, lik... |

| (MindBlind) well I think you are pretty much spot on there! It is true that my theory of mind appears to be a one way track. However, I can still empathise with multiple differing perspectives in same scenario, e.g. with arguments, I'm usually the one offering compromises and highlighting the other ... |

| (Ettina) Yes I can relate to making a conscious effort to maintain my sense, this is especially so as I have now become more aware of it, perhaps similarly to how you prevent yourself from falling into psychological traps, from your knowledge. (Zaye) I checked out the Highly sensitive test and score... |

| Hi, I'm Male and I have been recently diagnosed with Higher Functioning Autistic Spectrum Disorder Sub-Type (Bit wordy probably the result of changes to the Diagnositic criteria in the DSM V.) However I feel like I am at a bit of a paradox. I apologize for the length. I am aware that many people wit... |
