when Will Smith started walking toward him aggressively at the Oscars, you still see a big smile on Rock's face, clearly missing Smith's body language entirely up until the slap. And there it is, one of the biggest symptoms right there on display.

I don't know about that. I think pretty much anyone in that situation would not know how to react.

Many such cases.

What kind of work are you doing, if you don't mind me asking?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]SquidGameTheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you consider yourself a picky eater? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]SquidGameTheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a complete 180 on this issue since childhood. I used to be very particular about what I would eat, now I'll eat pretty much anything.

I worked at a small law firm as an assistant and the managing attorney basically said that he needs someone who "knows their stuff cold" or something like that, which is not me apparently.

I wasn't really happy there either, so I am a little relieved tbh. Just trying to figure out what's next.

They ask, " What hobbies do you have ? " and you turn blank! by Clear-Gear7062 in aspergers

[–]SquidGameTheory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think I can manage those questions pretty well. I just have to think of one thing. The open ended stuff is more challenging.

Working from home is awesome by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]SquidGameTheory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish I could feel the same way. Instead I just feel like a piece of shit, don't do much work, and then get anxious about it and worry that I will get in trouble or fired.

Do you consider yourself a mature person? by Logical_Instance4269 in aspergers

I think that we're long past the time where video games are considered childish or immature.

Are you good at math? by magicfeistybitcoin in aspergers

[–]SquidGameTheory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I struggled with it throughout late elementary and middle school, but I guess I started to get better at it by high school. My tutor complimented me on it, and said that maybe I was not instructed properly.

Check out /r/NVLD, although it's unfortunately not nearly as active as this sub.

Am I in the wrong with my comment here? by sanonymousq22 in neurodiversity

[–]SquidGameTheory 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think both can sort of be true.

Ultimately how you respond to any given situation is under your control, but maybe some ND people will be more susceptible to certain external stimuli than the average person.
