Do you guys feel like this?

Post Reply New Topic

Hi, I was diagnosed A.S.S some m ago. But got some questions. I try to look deeper in the reasons, why I act someway. (acts that can be seen as a.s.s)
The things I tell you guys here also make my ego bigger. Its very weird, I can talk about it rational but emotional is another story.

- Sometimes when I avoid social moments, its more strategical. When its a social moments with people who are higher then me and or if I know they don't like me. I avoid the situation, I'm scared the people in group will notice how those people talk to me, or how they react to me. In this situation I act introverted and avoid as much contact as possible.

- In social moments were I control everything. People lower then me, people who respect me. I act smart and charismatic.

- I feel sometimes 'somebody' without any emotions, everything is 'calculated' not literal but you know what I mean. I only feel anger when somebody hurts my family. But I see my family as part of me, its my own blood. I don't really feel sadness for other people. The only thing I can feel sadness for are animals.

-I don't know if its something typical 'Aspie' but I'm actually a pretty good liar. I tested it, with my own family. It feels great when they believe my lie. I asked my mother if I had good non verbal mimic. She told me I had good expressions.

-I remember my family telling me while I was a kid 8-10, that I should be psychologist. I was actually good at 'mind reading'.

Btw when I tell you guys now 'Sorry for my bad english, my language at home is french and my language at school is dutch'
I tell you guys this for those reasons: - So you know English is not my primary language, and I don't look like a ret*d. -So you guys hear I speak more languages in my common life.
I'm not really normal? Everything I say, why I go look deeper I just tell things so people get a some kind of image of me. I fake my own personality, because I don't have one.

Can somebody relate himself in what i tell you guys?

If you're good with body language and stuff, it doesn't sound like AS to me.

Sounds more like a narcissist or a sociopath, or maybe schizoid personality. (many things can be mistaken for AS)

Correction, looking at some of your other posts, you can admit to shortcomings so you're no narcissist. You do sound like you have ADD (bad short-term memory and concentration), intelligent especially verbally, maybe a learning disability in maths or something.

Some people I'm more shy around and self conscious, others I let down my guard quite a bit and its almost as if I don't even have Asperger's. It's strange but often times I'm very comfortable around strangers, an interaction with a stranger is like a one night stand because you'll likely never see them again. I have a lot of trouble when comes to people I potentially want to build an interpersonal relationship with, and a lot of it also has to do with my upbringing. I very mistrustful of everybody because of how I was raised.

To me you sound so much like a psychopath. Sorry I couldn't put that in a nice sounding way I hope you are not offended! When people here the word psychopath they think of murderers but that's not completely true. I have read that a lot of high up business men have psychopathic tendencies.

Anyway heres a link to a checklist of symptoms. I think it scores it for you too although I haven't tried it myself.
