I think I have autism.

Post Reply New Topic

I don't know whats wrong with me the doctors say I have really bad depression and anxiety but I think its worse then that. I never leave my house the only time I leave the house is to do stuff with my mom. I have problems talking to people and never know what to say I cant keep up a conversation and usually just agree or disagree with people. I just cant talk to people anymore and there's no way I can live like this I don't know whats wrong with me or how to fix it. Does anyone else have these same problems? And does my symptoms have anything to do with autism?

Talking to people is a huge problem to autistics. Usually we understand very late (~twenties, thirties) that talking is not about finding the truth, but is also used to express emotions.

No one here can guarantee you that you "have it", but when you say that you just thought about if its true or false what he is saying, then this might be a sign for it. Btw "autism" is just a term for common traits, the most important thing is probably not if it perfectly fits, but that you find others who have similar symptoms, and you learn to improve with their help too.

Talking to NTs, you mean...yeah that one took me a while, i still tend to forget about it, get into arguments, then try to pull on the brakes but it's generally too late
good luck on finding your label, OP, but it's not what matters the most as antonblock said. Just to answer your specific question, yes, sometimes i find myself just agreeing or disagreeing and finding that people are displeased at my way of communicating, and yes, for me it is related to autism. It could be the same for you, or that depression makes you too tired to communicate propely, or something else. You need to read much and discover that
