Are you generally inconsistent?

Post Reply New Topic

With moods, autism-related issues etc. I find it very hard to predict how I will feel and how much difficulty I will have with sensory issues, social interaction etc. from day to day, and even throughout a single day. It can get pretty frustrating. Is that normal? It seems to me that most of the people here have pretty consistent issues, but for me it feels like a rollercoaster (and I don't even like rollercoasters).

Anyone else have this problem?

Inconsistent with my moods? Definitely, in pretty much every way you described. Provided, I'm also bipolar, so that likely adds a massive hurdle on top of the AS.

Also, at first glance, I thought this thread was called "Are you generally incontinent?" and it was going play out in a much different way than it did.

My mood is quite inconsistent. I'm never happy (I've been depressed for so long I honestly don't even know what happiness feels like) and I hardly ever feel like I'm doing okay, but my mood can change from relatively neutral to really depressed (etc.) very quickly. Things like stress, loud noises, certain social interaction and sudden changes can ruin my days for me. Sometimes it's hard to predict when that will happen.

I can usually predict how I'm going to feel, if my circumstances are going to be familiar. What I can't predict is things like how I'm going to react to unexpected behaviors from other people, meeting new people or going to a new place. I can't predict how it will affect me if something stressful happens like a car breakdown or plumbing problem. Sometimes a minor inconvenience makes me feel like I'm going to have a nervous breakdown.

I find it hard to predict myself and how I will feel or react towards something. Sometimes I predict but I turn out wrong lol.

Not only the mood, but my "obsessions" or work/college....

Well, at least my inconsistency is consistent.

Aren't all humans inconsistent?

Yes. I thought so too, but it seems, that most people are more consistent regarding moods, sensory and social than yours truly.
At least they are probably better at not letting these things influence their functioning/working capacity.

Anyone that is close to me will notice how my AS comes and goes. I am inconsistent with my symptoms. I may be flexible and then inflexible or may be obsessive and then not obsessive. I may like sudden change and then not like it. I can imagine how hard this must be for my husband. My husband has described my AS like a slide and he has also described it like a roller coaster.

My moods were pretty inconsistent when I was depressed but nowadays my mood is alot more stabilized but little things can change it.

If you think of issues "taking turns". I suppose, that would be normal to most people, if they recognize their different issues, but it is stronger in aspies and we apparently are more influenced by it, - so, "inside normal range"? Yes, for aspies, - but otherwise above NORMAL range. That is what is giving us a hard time at work.

Yes but in my situation I didn't really had a choice. I am pratically abuse by everyone for everyone and all this had done is made me more of a screaming monkey in a chage. I cannot excape and can't cope with people constantly findind ways to continuousltly bash me down. Which makes me even MORE hated as I am in insult this society which happens to constantly treat me like trash.

Now I have to cope with these semi psychopaths constantly inprisoning me and trapping me down and they WILL harm me in any other way. No matter what I do, what happens, they will STILL do what they do no matter what. No consciene, no effects, just the typical psychopathy over and over so generally that makes me inconsistance since I don't care about being the low life scum of the planet.

I'm rather inconsistent outside the normal range in some ways other than moods. Well, especially my moods, because sometimes I end up turning into extreme. I already knew I'm inconsistently moody way before my diagnosis.
As for my sensory, at first I didn't knew why sometimes it's stable yet struggling, sometimes not all the sudden until I noticed quite recently. Depends in the situation.
Lastly, I barely predict myself well in general, despite my knowledge and attempt to control it...
