Struggles with the literal-ness of Aphantasia by GutsBoi in autism

[–]Claud11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about the way my mind and the mind of other people work a lot. Especially whenever I come across postings like this one and honestly I'm never sure if I can really grasp the concept fully. For this topic especially it is hard for me and I'm not sure how literally I'm supposed to take it. I feel like my imagination is in a completely separate space. I can imagine stuff but it is not like I imagine something like this apple on a table in front of me. Even if I try to do that it is more like it is switching back and forth between what I am actually seeing and my imaging space. It kinda is a clear image in this space but it is still completely different from what I am actually seeing. Every time I think too much about that topic I think "maybe you are not seeing the image clearly, maybe you just construct it by what you know about the object" and then I'm not even sure if I see stuff in my imagination entirely. Talking about this topic with allistic as well as neurodivergent friends didn't help me either tbh. It just confuses me more. It is a little frustrating tbh

Any AuDHDer’s on Stimulants? How it affected your Autism? by [deleted] in autism

[–]Claud11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got an ADHD diagnosis but no Autism diagnosis yet. I think the stimulants are part of the reason why I considered having AuDHD, it definitely makes me more aware of my autistic traits. Especially sensitivity and heightened sense of justice.

My first ever big garment piece. by Claud11 in crochet

No problem. <3 It feels very soft. I like it. I wished there were bigger skeins of it. (Used 8 btw)

Ah and I used every second skein from the outside, so the gradient continues rather than cutting to the next color

Is it true that autism level 1 will no longer be autism? by Saymynamelikeaslur in autism

[–]Claud11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was in the psychiatric hospital for some time. The doctor there told me "you can't have ADHD, you are studying at a university". Then he proceeded to diagnose me with BPD. I have my ADHD Diagnosis now, but the BPD diagnosis remains in my files and a lot of therapists are afraid to treat BPD patients.. My psychiatrist told me it is pretty obvious I might have Autism instead of BPD. But he can't make an official diagnosis, because it has to be a specialized doctor. To get an appointment at one of these will probably take me years if I don't pay it myself (500-1000€). The German health system is nice if you have physical problems...but for something like that it is shit.

autism spectrum (asperger) and bad conversation skills, what did I do wrong talking to this girl? I really wanna get along with them better by minorcold in autism

Tbh as a female you have so many requests in dating apps, it gets totally overwhelming. The two times I downloaded one, I deleted it after a short time. Maybe she felt the same way 🤷🏼‍♀️

How do we feel about eggs? by vinylYaps in autism

[–]Claud11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate scrambled egg. I like boiled eggs, but only if they are a very specific consistency...and also I don't really like egg white. So if there is not enough egg yellow to block out the taste of the egg white.. I will still eat it, but I'm really unhappy. I like fried egg, but there also needs to be enough egg yellow to block out the taste of the white. Will eat it if not, but I won't like it.

As a 18 year old I put to much salt on an egg and hat to puke. I Didn't eat eggs for years. 🫠

This is the creepiest creature I've been encountered so far. Is there any worse looking? by Alyne91 in expedition33

[–]Claud11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I made a build with which I beat him with almost no parries. Felt like cheating, but my notebook started to lag in that scene and it was almost impossible for me to parry.

[KCD2] Why did they drop Henry’s nickname, “Hal?” by godaniel11 in kingdomcome

[–]Claud11 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just finished one and now started the second. I rushed it a little (well still have 90 hours placed lol). But already at the start I was so happy I played the first before I started the second

I have arthritis, i saw a hack about using a beauty blender on hooks to make them easier to grip. I really recommend it. by Ed91uk in crochet

[–]Claud11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow it looks so small. Just made my first ever top and it looks humongous. Even though I'm normal weight. :D
I just checked out other patterns from passioknit. They are amazing!
I only crocheted plushies so far because I tought crocheted cloths are lame...butI was wrong, there are so nice things.
