Get exhausted just driving a car for five minutes or get really frustrated watching TV?

I also get overloaded pretty bad at work, especially towards the end of the week.

Help? :oops:

What drives me nuts when I'm watching TV is when the characters are taking forever to answer the door or phone because they're busy doing something else. Sometimes I just want to get in there and yell at them. Heck, sometimes I do yell at them! lol As for driving, I don't have that problem.

I'm terrible with sports. The good thing is, I go to live games where my team is playing and the atmosphere there suits me fine.

At least I didn't have to worry about that much for the Superbowl! The Colts killed the Bears! And living in Indiana, I was obviously rooting for the Colts. :wink:

What annoys me about fictional tv programs is when the charecters never ask or asnwar questions properly.

As for driving im driving all day every day, almost, and i know in the states you all have automatics here in the UK we mainly have manuals(well i do in my taxi) and the biggest problem i find is the seating position and clutch.

I drive an automatic, and I still have problems. It hurts my head to concentrate when my mind wants to think of fun things.

Yeah, it is a bit annoying when my mind wanders off when I'm supposed to be watching the road. The only thing that annoys me, though, is when there's a red light and I'm on a slope. It kills my leg when I'm holding down the brake!

yep. TV aggravates me (I don't have one - once I busted one up). And yes, I avoided driving for over 20 years. Took it up, and it was a royal pain. Now, luckily, I live somewhere where I don't have to again.

Hmm...Arthur C. Clarke was opposed to having to drive...I wonder.

I hate driving at night. One of my biggest fears is trucks. And they all come out at night and they're really scary.

I find daytime much harder. Has to do with the patterns that the shadows make. I wondered if I had epelepsy because of this (and strobe lights too).

The trucks around here pretty much just stay on the Interstate, which I never go one unless my mom is driving. Plus what helps me at night is that my car is white so it's more visible. Of course, I'm really not that fond of the color. Okay, so I hate it! I really want to get my car painted in metallic light blue or aqua, but since the car's still new, it's going to be very expensive.

My friend (she doesn't really feel like a friend, I think she wants to change my personality to that of your everyday 18 year old-NEVER!) has epilepsy. Different bf a week, clubbing on the weekend, endless shopping, she listens to modern music, all the things I hate. I don't force myself on to her, I sometimes for the sake of open-mindedness I try some things, but I get the feeling she sees me as inferior.

Anyway, it's usually my own thoughts that distract me and get me in trouble.

I have a friend that got so exhausted while driving he fell asleep and crashed -- yes he is the 'Frail' type Autistic... always haveing snoozes throghout his life -his dad still has a snooze in the middle of the day... and can even nod off in social situations because he is tired of trying to fit in.

----I think the only think to cure - the TIREDNESS ,, is too keep trying,, like exercising,, you get really tired the first time you jog ten metres, but in time you can start doing laps.
