    hi

    Im dissappointed as i wanted to get my intro right first time, but messed it up, i couldn't find the right words, or think of all my problems. Im shy, very sensitive, and find critiscism hard (i critiscise myself all the time tho) but i fall apart when other people say anything bad, and i go into self destruct mode and stay like it for ages. I have sensory issues, loud noise, background noise irritates me, especially clapping on tv programmes (what's the point of it!) heat/ cold really gets to me, certain foods, textures, and fabrics stresses me out. (and when ive got my mind fixed on having a certain thing to eat from the supermarket, only to find they haven't got it, i get really annoyed, and puts me out for a long time! Im slow to get things, have a processing delay. Change stresses me, i like familiarity, or i feel anxious, need things done in order or i feel 'out of sorts' Being in groups is terrifying, i struggle to join in, and make eye contact. When i can just about manage eye contact, i wonder if im staring, suddenly it hits me 'am i staring' (i mean, how long is looking at someone before being classed as staring?!) when i can talk, i realise when its too late, that ive gone on too much, as people make excuse to leave, i never learn. When in not at work, (im a carer, which has loads of things i struggle with) im lost, as the work routine is gone, i just drift around, no structure to the day, i try to do housework, but find that overwhelming:( wish i could be efficient and organised, always struggled Anyway, think that's enough said, sorry for long post, i said i talk too much ! ..

    hi

    Im not sure if ive got aspergers, but ive always struggled to talk to people, even family members i didn't see very often when i was young, in 40 now, and still struggle with them now. I just thought i was shy, and hate it when i blush and people comment, makes it worse and i just want to dissappear. Ive realised from my fiance that its possible i have aspergers, as i have a lot of traits he has. He hasn't been diagnosed yet, but is seeking a diagnosis. Ive realised i dont know how to behave in certain situations and watch other people to see how they are. I dont even know how to be most of the time, as i feel i dont know my identity. I copy other people, and cant make my mind up who i want to be like each day. Getting dressed when in not at work is a nightmare as i dont know how to dress, what goes with what (embarrassing as im 40, should know by now!) cant decide either. When i was younger, i was obsessed with rearranging my wardrobe into colour order. I dont want to go on too much right now, i struggle to get things out of my jumbled head in one go. Ive lurked around here for a while, and finally signed up.
