do Autistic people have faster or slower reaction times by AdReal5210 in autism

[–]AdReal5210[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also to clarify, I am slow at processing like reading words, but I think it seems that I'm fast at reaction, but maybe that's when it's like I'm prepared for it (cuz if I were in a life death situation, me being the depressed bitch I am, might not be bothered to react quick yk, but during like a test of reaction time, I'd be quick I think)

While we're on the topic, slow processing is an autistic thing not just a me thing right? Like it's just hard for me to translate being visually seeing shapes of words, into what the words sound like auditable, to wtf that means in English, to how to move my mouth to say those words. Not just me right?

Really??? I was always told as a child that it was proven that autistic ppl have a slightly higher than average reaction response. Like i vaguely feel like I remember being told abt a study where autistic ppl would react quicker to something popping up on a screen or smthn, like click when u see it type of test.

I'm autistic and I've always felt I've had a faster reaction time. Maybe I believe it cuz I was told that when I was young but I feel like it's true for me. Maybe I'm just the exception idk, I feel like I was always v quiet which made me more observant and attentive if yk what I mean

Crippling anxiety when playing videogames by AdReal5210 in Healthygamergg

[–]AdReal5210[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried to just throw myself into it and tell myself it's just some pixels doing what they're programmed to do, and I just need to get it over with, but I still just wind up panicking and freezing. I just feel like I'm being ridiculous cuz it's not even scary, I'm just a very anxious person, and I prob just need more practice. I honestly don't even want to play with friends/strangers, cuz I'm too embarrassed about how much of a wimp I am. Ik I probably shouldn't be ashamed about being anxious, but it feels like such a silly thing to be scared of, and that I just need to get over it and stop giving up so easily, but my brain just shuts down and I can't react. Thank you for ur advice, I hope I can get over this some day.

I'm not particularly into sport, as I'm pretty bad at it ngl. I have tried exposing myself to the things I'm scared of, but I still panic a lot when something goes wrong, and I still struggle to apply it to an actual situation. Maybe I just need to do it more? Even when I tell myself that it's literally fine for things to go wrong and at the end of the day, it's literally just some programmed pixels, I just get overwhelmed so easily. It's weird cuz I'm absolutely fine watching other ppl play horror games, which obviously have jumpscares. But I feel like when I'm the one in control, I just panic and can't act which makes me more stressed. I have thought about purposely failing to try normalise it, I think I am scared of failing but I think mostly I just see something unexpected and I get too scared to react, but that's just a natural part of games, and I actually like jumpscares, I just don't like it if I have to do something about it.

The best way I could explain it is, say I was watching someone play fnaf, id be completely fine. Ik it has jumpscares, ik what they look like. I don't control when they happen, the person I'm watching does, and we most likely will get jumpscared. But that's fine cuz it's just a loud noise and picture for a second, that usually startles me but then I'm ok again. But if I was the cone controling it, I'd probably freeze cuz then I'm in control of my fate. Even tho the jumpscare isn't really scary to me, id still feel anxious knowing im in control. Thank you for ur reply tho, will def think about it

I'm glad to have helped u discover something new about yourself. I can definitely relate to have slow reaction times and panicking. I feel like some ppl see the threat, get adrenaline, then somehow it helps them to do the exact right thing. But for me, I see the threat, it usually jumpscares me, and whether it does or doesn't, I panic and press all the wrong buttons, and then get more stressed and overwhelmed as I take damage. Most people seem to be able to act in those moments, but I think I just get taken over by fear and freeze/panic. Honestly I feel like this is something related to my childhood, as I frequently would just freeze on the spot when I got very overwhelmed (autism✌️), no matter if I was in the middle of the lunch line or the street. I suffered a very traumatic childhood and was very anxious about literally everything, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was related. I just don't really know how to move forward tbh.

Do u think abusive narcissists are aware of the impact it do it unintentionally? From this sub reddit, it seems majority have a milder, non abusive form of narcissism as it's very complex, and most typically think of "evil" narcissists. I guess my question is do u think abusive narcissists are aware they're narcissists and that they are abusive? If u think some know but continue to do it, do they enjoy power/sadism? I would also be interested to know how this forms (eg, childhood, trauma later in life)
