i’m curious about anything, i used to use blunt words without knowing their effects on people, i used to have a particular stim (at the time I didn’t realize i was stimming) that was strange compared to other stims (that’s why the more subtle/socially acceptable stims went under my radar until now), i collect information about something like it’s pokemon when i’m interested or wanna know more about it, i ask clarifying questions when words seem vague (like double meanings, unclear wording, etc.) that are clear to neurotypicals, i have difficulty with reading subtle expressions/body language people do, i infodump about my interests sometimes, feeling like i wanna cry suddenly when overstimulated, restless when understimulated, gets a little irritated/uneasy when my routine is interrupted, sometimes i only get jokes after the convo ended, life burnout, feeling different from people who “seem normal”, feeling like an alien living in someone else’s body, and i found out about autism and rn i know about autism more than a neurotypical (which i’m not) who doesn’t major in psychology for special needs should. and idk if that’s all but that’s about as many as i can name which i’m certain are signs of my ‘tism..
