| I tend to speak loud and receive many negative comments about the volume of my speech. Not sure if this is due to my partial loss of hearing or if it is an Aspie trait. Many Aspies speak very quietly and are generally referred to as shy as a result. But if you speak loud, many times that is referre... |

| Hi, This week, after receiving the diagnosis, it's going a little better and I feel a little more free of anxiety (also because I've been locked up at home for 4 days :roll: ). Does anyone else have problems with the tone of voice? Problems of the kind, that someone confuses your tone of voice as if... |

I love your idea of the marble! Did you created it from the scratch? |

| I definitely have a sense of humor. It depends on the time of year, I'm more or less prone to make jokes, but my humor is acidic, it has to reflect the absurdity of certain situations. In general I make some people in my circle of trust laugh, and I also laugh at their jokes. About the rest of NTs, ... |

| I always carry with me appart from the usual stuff (wallet, phone, keys... and yes, that's the order), I have been using an infinite cube for some time now (you can look in google), and I have noticed, on the other hand, that it relaxes me in cases of severe anxiety, or simply when I am more nervous... |

| I think that if you can find a support group in your area, it's probably worth checking out. I wish I could find something here, but haven't so far. When I first figured out, or "discovered", that I might be on the spectrum. I spent about a month laughing and crying at the same time. Like... |

| Thank you all for your message of support. I usually change every 2 years, my limit is 3. Unfortunately, since I am an immigrant with a visa linked to my company, I cannot (yet) change jobs. But I think I'm going to start pulling some strings to see if I can change areas and toxic environments. Than... |

| Hello, The truth is, I'm posting this as a shout in the silence... I've been bullied from some members of my group at work for 2 years now. The truth is that I'm not performing for what I'm supposed to be hired for, which applies my area of expertise, so my motivation is not very great, but I'm doin... |

| Congrats on getting your answers, how do you feel now? Personally I'm in a support/social skills group, and I enjoy it for the most part. We do social skills roleplays and take field trips to places around town. I'd say try it once and if you don't like it you don't have to go back. I know it'll be... |
