Is OCD common with AS?

There's this thing about me. I can never let anything go. I hang on to whatever I'm obsessed with. In some ways I'm just trying to figure things out. Mostly about myself. Before diagnosis I used to inner-wail, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO LIVE!! ! Don't even know what part of me was crying out. Mostly, I'm very self-aware, but, wow, I can be pretty confused about practically nothing.

My quotes for today 5/17:
How many times can you drown before you are dead?
My hand is always up in the air!
My emotions are so strong I'm afraid they will beat me up!

I'm sure we're all a bit obsessed about something around here - sounds like you're in the right place. Try mindfulness techniques - they work wonders.

Handy hint, your "My quotes for today 5/17:..." text at the bottom of your post. If you edit your profile, that's supposed to go into the signature field - limited to 5 lines. It also states, you can use HTML. Forget it. I've tried everything and it doesn't work!
Cheers

Yeah, I think you'll find that most people here are obsessed with something or other. It could be anything at all. And the level of obsession varies greatly from one person to the next.

I dont really think it's a bad thing though.

Thread locked as lovemybrain trashed it by overwriting the opening post to something different.

@lovemybrain please don't trash threads like that. Either add a new post to the existing thread or create a new thread if the topic is different.

You may also find it advantageous to use a meaningful title for your threads so members know what it is about without them having to open it.
