| When I watch too much of a certain show, I find that I behave a lot like the characters portrayed, almost exactly, and when I realize that, actually I try to keep the assimilated traits I like, and throw the rest out. Don't watch too much smallville if that happens to you. Or anything with poor scre... |

| Ohhh yeahh. I love journaling. I have one and a half books finished now. Not books, but you know... journals. I very much enjoy reading them over and realizing how much time has passed and realizing how much I've learned despite how little I think is going on. I need to be a little bit more prudent ... |

| Happened to me once. It's called depersonalization or derealization. People who said it happened to them said that it was caused by a monotonous, non-eventful, seemingly non-progressing life, in any sort of way. Basically your brain decides that what it's working for is NOT worth the effort, and it ... |

| Honestly, when I feel down, as a graphic artist, depression can be demotivating, but I find my art to be best when I have an emotion or story behind my art. Once I pick up the pen or pencil when I'm feeling down and I actually start drawing, the demotivation fades, and I just start drawing how I fee... |

| I had the same problem in parkour!! ! Cept I learned to accept channges in balance by jumping into a foam pit in various awkward positions. I learned air control, and in turn I learned to change my balance, and feel comfortably in control in most weird positions. But jumping into a foam pit or a gig... |

| I have TONS of trouble with fiction. Mostly with the believability, and the legitimacy of it. Watching movies can be hard because nobody is really as good at acting as everything seems to think. I think I notice that more because of my habits of watching real people to improve my social awareness. I... |

| Thaaaaaats really hard to say. As with social interaction, most aspies do terrible, but occationally make some long time friends. They also sometimes do really well with people, and everyone around them look up to them, but they themselves don't feel connected. You progress socially depends on your ... |

| As for me, no. I've always been able to jump well over the average. As for my also autistic little sister, she's about ten or eleven years old, and she cant really jump. I mean she can try, but she does it very wrong. I've had her practice because shes wanted to do parkour like I do, but instead of ... |

| Well, the only thing holding you back is your self confidence, regardless of aspergers. A trick to being confident is just looking in the mirror, and telling yourself everything great about yourself or your life, with NOTHING negative. If nothing comes to mind, just tell yourself your awesome, brill... |

| Yeah, I actually used to play every day, all day, and was severely addicted. I randomly got off my sophomore year of high school because I looked up how the character from the game prince of persia can run on walls, found out how, and just started doing parkour. My gaming life quickly degenerated fr... |

Of course you had a meltdown, you tried to indulge in a NT only drug. That's like trying to play something like "barbie quest" with your little siste... |

O.o That is an exceedingly larger number of peices then I have posted. I don't post much either, but that's mostly because most of my work is in sketchbooks. |
