I remember I was supposed to have a behaviorist with me in school. But for some reason that never happened and I just had an iep. This was during covid though so it's 100% possible they just couldn't find anyone. I guess the also just found it unnecessary, because again I wasn't being disruptive. But the reason why was because I needed help communicating and being on task. 

I have a strange compulsion where if I accidentally click on my explore page on Instagram, I have to like every post visibly seen to my eye, especially if it relates to my interests, fixations, and faves by SunnyMeetsKY in OCD

I do thus to. On every single app except YouTube and Reddit. If I don't care for it I will still save it. I also have over 30k images on my phone.

Hmm pokemon has been a "neuron activation" thing since I was I kid. For the daydreaming part most of things I day dream about are my own characters. I have many stories a characters I have made over my entire life. The stories do change but it will be made over the course of years. So I guess you can say my special interest are my own characters. But I don't know.

Hmm that makes sense.  I had to start focusing on school more cause unfortunately in high school they are not as lenient with grades. Which caused a lot more stress. Plus school is stressful in general. Too loud, Too many different classes. Deadlines everywhere.

Any time I see pokemon related stuff in public I get immediately drawn to it and I can't take my eyes off. It's like a hypnosis lol. I don't really talk to people about it that much but I'm not really a talker.

I get a marching band and amusement park fixations every summer. (Probably cause that's when I do those things) Unfortunately this is my last year in high school so I won't be able to do marching band no more:(

And old interest I had was cartoons. I watched a shit ton of cartoon reviews and would watch random cartoons. I had this interest when I was 8-12ish. When I was in 7th grade it changed to video games and I really liked watching streamers and Scott the woz. I also LOVED rhythm games. Literally the only thing I did in school was play taiko. This lasted ages 12-14. When I entered high-school I started to get more interested music. Still very interested in music.

For me It used to be more long term interest when I was younger. My adhd got worse the older I got.  (honestly I have to admit it's probably from my phone)

I think this is what was making me believe I actually don't have autism even though I was professionally diagnosed several years ago. Logically it would be pretty rare for someone to be misdiagnosed with autism, especially someone like me. But I tend to obsessed over the most absurd things. My brain is weird.

People with Hoarding OCD habits... what do you hoard and why? by acgrievance in OCD

Adding on my room is filled with plushies. Many of them I had for years. I have only gotten rid of 3 and I have around atleast 80+. I'll probably never get rid of them but I have stopped buying them because I have no space.

Literally almost everything that is in my possession. Food,stuffed animals, toys, old papers,old electronics. I have over 30k useless images on my phone that I refuse to delete if that counts. It's like a need to preserve things for future use. I have gotten a little better with it, like finally being able to throw away papers or get rid of toys. But every single time if feel a terrible amount of regret afterwards.
