Dima Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hello everyone, I didn't know where to post this so I hope I nailed it. So I'm on the spectrum and I have dyslexia. Time to time I'm having hard times managing myself. I was wondering about are there any people here that share the same community with me... Maybe we'll make a support group and chat about our every-day lives. Thank you.

Victimorthecrime Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 What are your autism symptoms like @Dima? Do you have sensitivities to light, sound, textures, and other stimulus? Do you have difficulty wIth social interaction? Full disclosure I don’t have autism. I do have anxiety and some depression. I work in behavioral health, albeit in a non-clinical capacity, so I see treatment cases for autism patients, ABA etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dima Posted June 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 @Victimorthecrime I was diagnosed when I was a kid. Some symptoms I handled, some I still struggle every day. Some textures, sounds. especially social interactions are hard for me. Victimorthecrime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayless Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 I'm just curious: What are your problems exactly in social situations? I've had, for decades, disabling anxiety in social situations, but wrote it off to "social anxiety" not autism. What is the difference? Sorry, I can't really be of help and have questions instead!
