Some Aspies do so, but this has more to do with a OCD; I know a NT with an OCD how does so; I am an Aspie and try hard to keep my circumstances so simple that I am even not in need of having a diary.


How do you recall everything? I find that I forget far too much, only to regain it in memory days later. It seems that my life and experiences are only truly experienced in hindsight.

I admit that I have alternated between making lists and not making lists, depending on how self-conscious I am over my poor working memory and weak executive function. At times I have been neurotic enough to even jot down information on the palms of my hands.
