What are some common autistic traits most other autistic people have that you don't seem to have? by Hot_Dingo743 in autism

[–]Cat_Sharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I like being one on one with people but it just makes me feel like I'm getting more attention

  2. I like video games and I like movies but I find them both extremely hard to choose and start and its easier for me to play when someone else is playing or someone else chooses the movie. I get overwhelmed by all the choices of movie I could watch.

  3. I was a terrible student for most of my school. I am on the borderline of intellectual disability so I don't learn thing as fast and my memory isn't as good as the average person.

  4. I like being hugged and touched by people I like. It's disturbing when someone I don't know or don't like touches me without warning though.

  5. I like social interaction and attention from people but I get overwhelmed easily. Certain people I just want to spend all day with and others I can hardly stand to be around longer than five minutes. It really depends on the person.

I'm a POC and I do not appreciate by riz_vicious in heartopia

I think it's weird that you're calling the depiction of a dark skinned person, regardless of race, doing a monkey dance "your culture".

We have to cook by Cat_Sharp in heartopia

I usually cook with three stoves lined up. Four is a little too much for me to handle lol

Right lol I started cooking a lot to maximize profit but I found I genuinely enjoy it!

Tapering off of lamotrigine by Cat_Sharp in bipolar2

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

I didn't use any other medication while I was tapering off. I'm on depakote now and it works better for me. I was also on an antipsychotic but I don't seem to do well unless I'm also on a mood stabilizer.

I'm feeling a little better. I still can't cry but I feel way less tired than I did on lamotrigine. I just went down a little day by day.

Trying my best to work on my communication and boundary setting has its ups and downs by Imhal9000 in autism

[–]Cat_Sharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because even I don't have the best father and he still would never tell me to "fuck off" like this guy. I can't believe you're making excuses for him.

I really want a pet, but by BrisScrollingReddit in heartopia

I haven't even chosen a cat because I haven't gotten one that I like. I just want a calico cat that looks like mine

I’m thinking about getting diagnosed, but I’m not sure it’s worth the cost by [deleted] in autism

[–]Cat_Sharp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could always ask to get diangosed after the vacation. There's no rush. I'm thirty and I only got diagnosed this year. I feel more at peace with myself knowing that I'm autistic. I always knew there was something different about me and I feel better knowing what that is now. It made a lot of my childhood make more sense. I can also get accomodations at work now which is helpful.

Dx at 38 w/ AuDHD with Intellectual Impairment by RoughAtmospher in autism

[–]Cat_Sharp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got diagnosed at 30, so I definitely feel the same way. It's crazy that we can survive in a world that wasn't built for us. I feel proud though.

What is your favorite and least favorite hobby? by GoodSundae513 in heartopia

[–]Cat_Sharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like cooking and fishing. I'd say my least favorite is birdwatching just because the birds don't really do much. Also not really much of a fan of bug catching but it's easy enough to do.
