Tell us about your experience with/connection with Autism Spectrum Disorder(s)


The diagnosis of Autism that I have is called PDD-NOS. My reflexes are not quick so I won't be driving. I don't always know when someone is telling a joke. I take jokes and statements seriously and I believe that makes me a logical thinker. I have Anxiety and Bilateral Hand Tremors. I can express myself very well in writing but expressing myself verbally can be difficult. Reading articles on the internet about relationships helps me understand peer relationships with people my own age as well as the social setting. I struggle with asking for help when I need it at times but I think I'm improving. Social situations confuse me. I can also get distracted easily and it can be hard for me to pay attention but I just do the best I can. I tend to lose track of time when I'm doing activities that I like to do. I'm smart but I process information in my brain differently. Sometimes, I have a hard time finding the right words to say.
