Eyy the squad! I'm high functioning as well, I have been for a while. I can 100% function on my own and I am completely fine with doing things by myself, in fact I prefer it. My autism is more social, I am extremely introverted and nervous around new people. I take medicine for my social anxiety and if I skip a day without it, the stimulus becomes too much and I start to freak out. I am sensitive to sudden loud noises and I can't give people eye contact most of the time, unless if I know them, but even that is hard. I hate it when people yell at me and I get extremely upset because of it. I don't really have a happy stim, though if I get really excited I jump up and down and shake my hands like I'm trying to dry them off. I also do not like conflict at all, if someone confronts me with something I am most likely going to cry. At work one time, this woman confronted me and said I was being 'rude' when I was not, and my manager handled it thankfully, but I had to walk away and I started crying because I didn't mean to come off as rude and I hate making people upset. It's hard sometimes, but of course y'all know that. We're just special cinammon buns that need hugs every now and then :3

Well, yeah. Hugs only if the person likes hugs. Me, if I know the person well enough, I'll just throw out hugs like candy. I worked with this guy named Jason (who later told me that he likes me, I still talk to him) and he'd always hug me when he left work. He's an affectionate guy and loves to hug people, it wasn't just me xD

For me, it depends on my mood, and how autistic I'm "feeling" on that day. Theres some (seldom) days that I just want to give hugs and say to hi to everyone who enters a 50 foot vicinity of me, and other days I dont even wanna be touched by my own mom.

I hate being confused and then scolded and being confused on the reasoning and its like a never ending cycle that I cant keep up with.

I have a friend who has autism, and they wanted me to tell you thank you for this chat. They are incredibly happy; when they played WP...some people were less than nice:( Edited at May 18, 2020 04:21 PM by CriesInTheNight
