Do people mistake you from being organized while you're really in reality disorganized? Do you were the type of person that was super-organized? 
What type of "organize" person are you? See poll. |

After being a chameleon all my life, I don`t even know how to be `myself`.
How do I act like myself, all I know is to clone someone else and wear their mask? |

| I can no longer keep up with the social demands. I try my best to learn, but my efforts are worthless. The more that I try to learn to communicate the more that I learn that I am stupid. There are so many things I have t learn, but I don`t want to make so many mistakes along the way such as annoying... |

Definitely not. I'm in solitary confinement in my own world, and I like it.
I would rather die in isolation rather than go outside to buy food, pay bills, etc. to interact with people. |

| Do you have any friends among the group that call you crazy? Or that are aware of others calling you crazy? You literally need to ask someone to break it down and define what "crazy," things you do so that you can be aware of the behaviours you do, or things you say, etc that get that reaction from... |

Mine is usually
"wait ... What?! / What do you mean" 
or
"Sorry, can you repeat that, I wasn't listening"
or
"That doesn't make sense / You don't make sense" or "I'm confused" 
or
"Joke? Sarcasm? ... oh  " |

| This is rant-advise post. I try my best to be conceive as "normal" by my classmates, but it seems like no matter how hard I try I will never be as good as those people. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I feel "normal", and not a lot of people point out my quirks, so I thought I passed the normalcy... |

| Black and white friendships. You are either a friend or not. Therefore if I feel offended by a remark that's not meant to be hurtful, I will cutoff my ties with that person. Also, I see friendship as more of an obligation and requirement. There are too many rules and norms one has to conform and it'... |
