Alright I know this may be a odd thread..
But I've been thinking for a while, and well... I may actually be autistic.
Alright, so my whole life I've disliked human contact. Even eye contact, I find it hard to stare people in the eyes... I can touch and communicate with animals, just not humans. I have hard interacting with people at all unless I know you well. There's about 4 people that I will actually smile at. That I feel comfortable around. These people are, my girlfriend, my best friend, my mother, and a few other friends. If I talk to other people I almost have a panic attack. I'm always worrying what they are thinking about me. If I look good enough. If I'm talking right (I sometimes stutter, something that's recently developed... I don't even know why.)
A few other things I'll point out that show autism is I'm intelligent. Hell I'm fucking smart, I'm not gonna lie. I have good and bad grades. 2 F's and 5 A's. I'm in 5 AP classes. But school isn't a measurement of intelligence. We all know this. I have a semi-identical memory. I remember the little things and these little things help me remember the big picture. Well that's how my doctor explained it when I was 8.
Also, when it comes down to the communication thing. I'm fine when I text or message. Its just in real life that fucks me up...
So do you think I should go get tested for Autism?
Am I just socially awkward?
This is not a attention whore thread... If you think it is then don't post or read.
