I don't need a keyboard, I have a mouse with 18 buttons-- it handles pretty much all my computer related tasks, except straight out typing, even then I'm using the copy/paste/delete/cut buttons on my mouse more than the keyboard it seems. I did have one gaming keyboard a while back that was mechani...

Hello all - as the title states, if you are married where did you meet your significant other? I met my wife on Match.com! I was always shy through school and once out of school was a hermit except during hobby time and even then I wasnt out much. I never had much luck with meeting girls that way so...

I ran into this my whole life ( I am in my 40's now ) and it caused issues. My issue is that I wasnt diagnosed until last year but it sure explains a lot of things now! I was super shy through school but once I got up the nerve to say ask a girl out then I became hyperfocused on her. I would never t...

Just curious if there are any others that prefer mechanical keyboards. I type a lot for work so I am picky about keyboards and have tried pretty much every style I can find on the market. My preferences in order: Cheap rubber domes like what comes free with a desktop - Blah. OK at first if that, bu...

Lifetime sufferer of allergies! I have to take daily meds (Zyrtec right now) or I am miserable. I was getting shots twice in my lifetime, once as a kid and again as a 20-something. Both times I didnt notice much of a help so stopped. My skin tests light up like a Christmas tree!

I am just general ASD but I do have GI issues and have all my life. I have a formal IBS diagnosis and there are many foods that I cant tolerate - Onions and anything in that family, squashes, random fruits can set me off. I do better when I stay on top of taking probiotics but even that isnt a guara...

Yes! Drives my wife nuts since she is super neat. My work desk is a mess. My side of the bedroom a mess. My area of the counter top - Mess! But, every once in a while I get a bug in me to clean up. It feels really awesome to organize everything and make things clean and neat. It only lasts a day or ...

IQ is a number from a test, that is all. It may tell you how well your brain perceives specific problems or your education level but I found it doesnt translate well into daily life. When I was a teen many many years ago I scored in the high 120's to low 130's depending on the test and how much I ap...

Hello everyone! My name is Shannon (but I am a guy!) and I am in my 40's. I was recently diagnosed on the spectrum last year. I actually volunteered to get tested as I have two boys who are also on the spectrum (hence my screen name). I am pretty high functioning according to my wife, family and doc...
