>A recurring experience: I say something explicit, the other person hears something implicit.

I've experienced this my entire life and have all but given up trying to have actual conversations with people.

I'm still not great at knowing when it's going to happen, but at least I've gotten a lot better at noticing that it is happening. The 50/50 part is then being able to get out of it by knowing what the nonexistent implicit thing is that I need to disavow.

How’s life on the spectrum? Have you been diagnosed?

[boxedemp]

Never been diagnosed. Been to many therapists and psychiatrists.

I've been diagnosed with depression several times, but never anything spicier.

I'm just strange I guess.
