Do you have trouble looking at yourself, namely, your face, in the mirror.?

I have trouble looking at myself in the mirror and have had problems with it since the sixth grade. I really have a problem with looking at my eyes and this complicates matter of hair grooming. As I am growing my hair long right now, it is supremely vital that I maintain a proper parting of the hair as it grows out, espcecially now that it is in the "awkward" stage. If I want to shave, I use a little side mirror to gaze at a specific spot on my face. I feel absolutely freakish. I meed to learn how to look in the mirror, or I will be the most ugly longhair on the planet.

Anyone think I am the weirdest person on the planet? Is this at all related to Asperger's? Any suggestions on overcoming my arcane fear?

My aspie son has trouble looking at himself in the mirror. As for myslef, I have been avoiding mirrors since my early twenties, but not for the same reason as you. Ever since I can remember, I would often catch myself talking to myself in the the mirror. Most times I would not even realize I was doing it until I sort of *snapped to*. When I was young, It did not bother me much. I would just catch myself and think...geeze that's weird. When I got older, I caught myself doing it one day and thought...my God, I'm going to do this all my life. It seemed like such a crazy thing to do. It bothered me because most times I did not even notice I was doing it and could not remember what I was saying. It made me wonder who the crap I was talking to. It made me wonder what the crap they were saying back. I've been avoiding mirrors ever since. I have recently learned that some other aspies do this too. It still seems a bit nutty, but I feel better knowing I'm not the only one.

Looking in the mirror, seeing my own picture, especially the kind of live video you see in a mirror or webcam, is indeed a strange experience.

Children Of Bodom Lyrics

"Children Of Bodom No Commands lyrics"


Looking at myself in the mirror, is it me?
Anybody there? I ask myself and look away
Feeling weird things in my head, controlling me?
Hearing strange voices everywhere, calling me?
All illusion?

What is happening to me, my hands are working
Without my own will
Is there someone else inside of me, who are you?
I know i'm not dreaming
Somebody tortures me all the time
Got my own soul escape my body, filled with
Torture and pain

[Lead: Roope & Jiri]

No commands, no more
Take no orders from you no more
No commands, no more
I'm on my own, don't own me anymore

[Lead: Jiri/Roope]

Evil powers try to take me, can I bet the same
Anymore
But I'll whip you out myself, out of my mind
Evil torture and hell's fire
Gonna rule me no more
Still I'm scared 'cos I can't know
Will my sould come back
Come back!

No commands, no more
Take no orders from you no more
No commands, no more
I'm on my own, don't own me anymore

I dislike looking at myself in mirrors. I've been afraid of them since I was very young. I always though I might see something in the mirror that wasn't anywhere else. I also don't like looking at photos of myself or watching myself in a video. I always feel like I'm looking at a complete stranger.

I only do it when I have to as far as various personal hygiene things which is a few times a day. I mainly don't like to look in the mirror because I don't like the way I look.

I already know what I look like and I don't really look in the mirror very much because I am usually doing something else at the time like washing my hands or thinking about something.

I have no problem looking into the mirror when I'm alone in the bathroom with the door shut, but if I'm out shopping and pass one, I'll look away and walk a little faster. Don't know why, I just don't like seeing myself in a mirror in public :?

And like someone else said, sometimes I freak out a little thinking I might see something in the mirror that shouldn't be there :x I know it's silly and superstitious, that ghosts won't really come out of the mirrors in the dark...but it still freaks me out.

I do too. I watch the way I look in shop mirrors, the way I walk or stand. When I see myself, it does seem strange, cos I don't picture myself standing or walking like in the mirrors. :?

I don't like looking in the mirror for a very simple reason: I have an unattractive face, and I don't like being reminded of it.

Can I take your order please?

Let's eat to the beat

(Chorus)
A pizza hut a pizza hut
Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut
A pizza hut a pizza hut
Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut
McDonalds McDonalds
Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut
McDonalds McDonalds
Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut

You like it you love it
You know you really want it
The voices I hear
Whenever you're around

I want it I need it
Nothing else can beat it
Hot and spicy
Whenever I'm in town (mm mm)

Enticing exciting
Aroma so inviting
And when it hits
Me, I wanna take you home

Trust me you must see
Just what you're doing to me
Driving me crazy
Hungry to the bone

I think of you and lick my lips
You've got the taste I can't resist
Can't resist - can't resist
Let's eat to the beat

(Repeat Chorus)


Would you like that to go?

Any sauces?

You're so sweet and you're neat
You knock me off my two feet
You're chunky and hunky
I'm coming back for more (Hot Dog)

Your taste all embraces
I gotta sing your praises
Just savour the flavours
Waiting at your door

I think of you and lick my lips
You've got the taste I can't resist
Can't resist - can't resist
Let's eat to the beat

(Repeat Chorus)


Does anyone fancy a shake?
Shake
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Shake it to the left - Shake it to the right - Let's shake
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

I think of you and lick my lips
You've got the taste I can't resist
Can't resist - can't resis

I don't have a problem looking in the mirror for the most part. But there have been a few times when I look in the mirror and I get this weird feeling that I'm not even looking at me, it's almost like I'm outisde of my body looking at me. So when I feel like that might happen again, I avoid mirrors.
