I've edited this, because I shouldn't have to censor myself. I was born a Kinks Fan and I will die a Kinks Fan.

My latest special interest is researching a disease I was just diasgnosed with. :(

Given a “tentative” diagnosis as a child as I needed services at school for what was later correctly discovered to be a major anxiety disorder.

This misdiagnosis caused me significant stress, which lessened upon finding out the truth about myself from my current and past long-term therapists - that I am an anxious and highly sensitive person but do not have an autism spectrum disorder.

My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

I'm sorry to hear that. :(

I've started to think about my own sci-fi story again, so I've been imagining up chapters for it. I'm still into Stargate and Doctor Who and am thinking about getting back into Astronomy or His Dark Materials.

Helena Bonham Carter. I've actually had this interest for quite some time, but I kept trying to suppress it because I was worried that other people would think I was a creeper. But I talked to my mom about it and she says I'm not being creepy. She said that lots of people obsess over celebrities and that she used to obsess over Davy Jones from The Monkees. She also says that famous people are used to being obsessed over and that they actually expect it. Now I'm not afraid to express my obsession with Helena. :)

Some of you might say, "Well what about your Johnny Depp obsession? You weren't afraid to express that!" Well in the case of my Johnny Depp obsession, it had a lot more to do with the characters he played rather than him as a person. But with Helena it's the opposite - I'm more interested in her as a person rather than the characters she plays (although I do enjoy her films very much).

Today it's:

Papua New Guinean coffee production
and Timur (or Tamerlane) - not that I like him, it's more like, 'wow, how can anyone be so cruel?'

Though the ones I mentioned in the last post are still big and more enduring.

Currently for a long time since late 2009 it's imageboard culture and history. So much so that I created a website about it (www.yotsubasociety.org) and a imageboard (www.yschan.org/ys) too.

My latest big obsession, one of the biggest obsessions was Google SketchUp. I took 2 years with 80% of the time I used the computer just playing with it, creating models. I even got some buildings to show up on Google Earth's cities... Nowadays I rarely run the program.

The latest little obsession I had was about beer. I suddenly started buying all types of beer just to compare the tastes and origins! Now it is gone, but I still like to drink a good German beer. :roll:

The obsession I am currently in is about IT, but I was once obsessed with computers before and it was big, but now I'm re-living it and much more intense, it's probably going to become the widest of all obsessions I had.

Another obsession I am currently involved is about Aspergers, probably because I recently discovered what it is and that I have it...
