| Anything I cannot ignore, anything too painful and anything distorted. It doesn't have to be external. Most of my sensory issues related to intensity is internal. Taste would be my worst and I'm increasingly becoming less of a picky eater. Most of my sensory issues are not very direct. More like a f... |

| I don't like the textures of vegetables. Leafy parts and stems more so -- anything that resembles a texture of an apple and anything less crunchier or less softer than that. Unless it's well boiled enough to be soft, or is deepfried. Just anything gummy. Soft but doesn't mince easily. Might as well ... |

| I have a question, it's a little bit off topic. (My executive functioning is passable so I can't personally relate very well). But my 21 year old aspie son is having huge issues with procrastination and not doing the things he is supposed to be doing. This ranges from washing up the dishes (says he... |

| Not me though. Unless all direct culprits; I have many -- are out of my system, then I won't just accuse autism for it. I'm not like most autistics, it seem. I don't suffer from chronic depression. Or chronic fatigue. My energy is not wasted managing on anxiety related issues... Or suppression of be... |

Eh. :lol: Even going to the dentist is funny. I could care less if I 'pass' for healthy or 'fail'. Healthy means I can very much ... |

Or the type who got assessed with poor verbal IQ yet I can out perform my classmates. Or the type who won't be surprised to be sick this whole time ... |

Whether it's fandom, political stuff, religious beliefs, academic subjects, lifestyles, even sexualities..... |

I won't mind if it results me better self control and less impulses, would mean less stress related spending and cravings. For me to have a bigger breakfast doesn't also take mone... |
