My OBsession with PhsycoSocial Skills

Post Reply New Topic

I droped all my hobbies and intrests and changed them as soon as I wanted to become a better person, I threw every philosophical theory in the trash after discovering a bit about AS.

All im intrested in now is developing myself and my phsycosocial skills. I DELETED ALL MY MUSIC, and put the xbox away forever, i rarley watch television and only use the internet for some youtube fun and knowledge on this subject. I want to acheive greatness in my life, Narcisism plays a roll in my life also.

What do you think is this AS?

Sorry, what was the question?

I don't think you have to go to such extremes, but if you're doing what you want, that's okay.

What sort of greatness do you want to achieve, and why? You know it's a lot easier to convince yourself that you don't want greatness

I find this really sad. Yes, it is great that you want to a better person, but you shouldn't destroy what makes you you in the process. All people, NTs and AS, have their individual likes and dislikes, their special interests and hobbies. That is what makes people interesting and why you would bother to talk to someone in the first place.

Build off of your strengths and interests, don't ignore them ( that generally won't give results). You are looking for answers, but you should also be looking for the correct questions. It sounds like you have come to some quite profound conclusions about what you want out of life, which is great!

Like the Moog asked, what sort of greatness are you interested in? Everything has its associations; lets say you like spending 10 hours a day watching youtube videos. What kind of videos do you watch? Why do you like them? What do you appreciate about them? If you could spend 10 hours a day doing something more productive, what would it be? Anything related that you are interested in? What about that do you like? Why are you interested in that? I could just go on and on.

If you think you have AS, OCD, ADHD, or anything else and its keeping you from your dreams and goals ( or even making goals) or making life difficult, seek some professional help. Does your town/city have a community outreach program? Even if you don't have insurance, they can point you in the right direction. Call around, explain your situation and people will point you in the right direction. Sometimes just talking to a counselor is all you need to help sort things out.

Also, no, I don't think it sounds like AS, but it would be foolish to base a diagnosis off of such little information with such little insight. Really, try and find a psychologist or another professional to talk too, it seems like something you would really benefit from.

You're going to miss that music!
Giving up all of your creature comforts will only make you miserable. Almost everyone (AS, NT etc) likes to pass time with some distraction like music, games or TV. You will not change your personality or your brain's wiring by making yourself miserable and depriving yourself of basic pleasures.
