I can never get used to hugging and things like that.
One of the reason I don't like handshakes is because I have very skinny hands and I have no strength in my hands because of it.
Hugging and handshakes are the most uncomfortable feelings to me. |

My first time on LSD was fun, adventurous, strange, and eye opening. My second time on LSD was mindblowing, cosmic, scary, and uncontrollable. My second time,... |

Just google search it, I love wikipedia. lol
Autism comes in many forms, some autistics are very low functioning but some are very high functioning.
There can be many many many differences between different autistic people.
The best way to put it, in my opinion, is simply "Wrong Planet Syndrome". |

There have been suggestions that nicotine patches may help!
It's a safer alternative to cigarettes but don't overdue do it or you may become addicted to the patches!
All of it is still conjecture though. |
