Decided? I'm not sure I had much choice.
The isolated part potentially is.
Every day the desire to say "fuck it", sell everything, and then go live in the woods grows.
As a kid I didn't understand hermits.
Now that I'm an adult, I'm jealous
Yeah, I'm working on getting out of this, but it's hard. So many years of living in isolation and not talking doesn't make it any easier
Life goal: Become that old man who yells at kids who touch his lawn.
I’m in my late 30s and already there. Considering putting in a hedge.
Battle gate
side note! Don't fuck with people's lawns, or any other part of their property. Respect other people's spaces stay on the god damn sidewalk or the road.
Chill grandpa they just touching grass
Every post I see on here... Kind of makes me wonder if I might be a little autistic
This is why autism is so hard to define and why objective information about it is so hard to find.
groups like "autism speaks" are full of bullshitters that constantly talk about how horrible autism is and how it destroys families.
Narcissism destroys families, not autism.
Wanna know something else that pisses me off? Most autism specialists don't listen. They'll sit there looking at you talk, but they'll only take in about 10% of what you say and then they'll respond to something you never said.
They'll figure it out eventually... Until then it fucking sucks.
You're setting yourself up for an extremely sad life if you are content with being isolated and "weird." It might be fun right now for a few months where you take time for yourself and go home and take home fast food and watch Netflix, but that expires very fast. You don't want to be a creepy, aloof 80 year old man who everyone assumes is a virgin. My sister was diagnosed with autism and used to be a creepy male virgin and she can't stand people like that.
