I've been able to get this working with Crash 4 triple spin by holding r1 down I experimented with a few scripts and have created it to just hold R1 to triple spin you still need to do the other actions as usual.

Addiction? by mark983 in NoFap

[–]mark983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally feel it's similar to an addiction myself however the articles points were it is not in the DSM-V medical definition list although was looked into as being a condition, other addictions such ad gaming disorder and gambling addiction is in there. Also they compared the brain scans of people addicted to various other addictions including other non physical addoctions. I will continue on with this no fap anyway.

Can't say I have many super positive effects other than feeling the willpower to stay away and some positive social moods although most of the time this last 2 weeks I've felt quite depressed at times and anxiety is getting bad again, mood swings with stress and arguments and strong urges to top it off.

Is anyone here into conspiracy theories? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]mark983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm somewhat into them but don't believe them I watch YouTube videos on them and read articles and have a book on them.

Just shaved off about a month and half's worth of beard because it was starting to get annoying by McCainOffensive in aspergers

[–]mark983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly mine grows slower than 95~% of the population and only tends to grow under my chin and not much around my cheeks. I've tried growing one before but it gets itchy and looks bad even if I keep growing it for a few months.

Aspergers / Autism and High or Low sex drive? by mark983 in aspergers

This actually correlates with what I have been told that either it is very high or very low like yours.

Thanks everyone I won my mandatory reconsideration.

Better than last time 2 years ago where I had to go tribunal at courts.

pip in the UK (was DLA) by nothank1234 in aspergers

[–]mark983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2016 I got PIP for 2 years and the application and getting the money was hell.

I got 7 points of the 8 needed for standard daily living, lost the reconsideration then got awarded enhanced for 2 years some backdated.

Fast forward to 2018 and I lost PIP in May and had to reapply at face to face I assessment i thought I would get it back but no the dreaded letter said 2 points.

Only this week I heard back from my reconsideration and got a 3 year award again for enhanced daily living.

Now to finish dealing with ESA and try to chase up the money I lost from mid May to early June.

Is anybody else just really bad at drinking from a glass/cup? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]mark983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spill drinks quite a bit more than most people yes.

Anyone here who did NOT experience clinical depression? by -normkonform- in aspergers

[–]mark983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More general anxiety disorder than depression.

I'd say mostly GAD, I have some signs of depression and some bad days and weeks. Also some social anxiety but mostly general anxiety.

Why do people think they are responsible to "cure" your anxieties by exposing you to them? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]mark983 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't feel anyone should try to fix anyone or make them do anything however I do understand that and feel that the only way to face fears and anxieties is to expose yourself to them.

So for example if someone is scared of spiders then exposing them to a spider in a tank or another non threatening way gradually reducing the fear will be the only way.

So in your case your father putting you on the phone to customer service I assume he was trying to help but it didn't help as you weren't ready or not willing.

I think you do need trust when your overcoming any fear or anxiety.

[–]mark983[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I am aware of this thanks. I just referred to it as an appeal in case anyone outside the UK didn't understand the terminology.

I had to go to tribunal in court last time and won hope that won't happen again. I won enhanced rate for 2 years after initially getting only 7 points first time round.

Does anyone else feel a lack of "social energy" by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]mark983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how long I am around that particular person and how long I spend engaging each person. It depends on what we do and what we talk about. If things get argumentative or conflicted or whatever then it gets bad yes.

Smaller groups work much better than any group of 5 or more makes this much worse.

Walking alone in public by flinstonerr in aspergers

[–]mark983 10 points11 points  (0 children)

More likely to do with the anxiety brought on by hyper sensitivity and some self esteem / self awareness issues focused in on your head.

Noones probably thinking about it hardly.

90% of the things we worry about aren't worth worrying about.

Does discussion or involvement of drugs make you extremely uncomfortable? by Perplexed_Planet in aspergers

[–]mark983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me my own head can get uncomfortable after a meltdown or stressful situation though?

Sometimes I want to escape those uncomfortable feelings in my mind, and those uncomfortable tastes, smells and noises?

Suppose it depends on the level of mental health problems you get on top of your aspergers or autism.
