do you suspect your dad might be autistic in your country?
>>217821400Kinda. He's definitely an introvert, at least
No, I think he might have OCD
>>217821400no, my dad is a chad with many girlfriends
>>217821400My dad is batshit insane and i love him
>>217821400I know that for a fact
>>217821400my dad is dead now and even though we looked exactly like each other, he was super sociable and could make friends anywhere while i struggle with anything
>>217821400He is. He refused to get tested and even after both me and my brother got diagnosed with autism he refused to believe it. But a few years ago when he retired from work at age 66 he finally accepted and did the whole diagnosing speedrun. Result = atypical autism and social anxiety.
>>217821400sure, if being autistic makes you an alcoholic
My mom is more autistic than my dad
It's shitty to speak in such a disrespectful way about a man who worked hard to put clothes on your back and food on the table, raising you.
>>217823197How is mental illnes disrespectful?
>>217821400yes actually i was speaking with my mom about this last weekmy dad has very specific interests and likes to learn about them as much as he can, sometimes he rambles unusually long about them, he's a bit socially awkward tooi guess i inherited the 'tism from him
>>217821400I know he isNo neurotypical man could be as interested in planes as him
>>217823197my dad lived off my mom for 25 years until retirement and more or less had no friends but those she knew
>>217821400yes extremely but functional, mom as well. me and sister too, i think only my younger brother got spared of the curse. thing is my brother is the most shy of us, the rest of us can speak in public he just cant. i for instance have severe social anxhiety but i can stand up and speak to a crowd, it might be autistic sperging, its like being afraid of heights and planes and faced with a parachute, you either jump and get over with it or endure the flight back down. i jump. i have heard i was sperging doing so, but atleast i got up a said something and i was on the point.... most normies wont even do that.dad has been in local politics, on tv, board member of several organizations... he knows his stuff but damn he is autistic, how do he talk people into woting for him? why do he choose such positions?
>>217821400No he's dead. :(
>>217821400Bros...tell your dad you love him and make him proud :(
>>217821400My grandfather was considered an aspie before being an aspie was a thing. Everyone in my family attests to this. The test they gave military men in WW2 declared him most suitable to record keeping. He later became a lawyer and massive alcoholic with a distant and nonsentimental relationship with his children. My uncle and father both inherited a similar kind of spergery, except my dad inherited the less successful and more schizophrenic kind of autism.
Reading up on Bob Chandler really shines a light on Chris’s nasty traits, the hoarding especially
He's much too social. But if you told me that he had A.D.H.D., I'd believe it.
No. My father is the opposite of an autist. But i suspect my mother is.
>>217821400just retarded
Is it nice having a dad?
My dad has melties over certain sounds but that's about it
Not sure he's autistic but he is a bit reserved and very smart, think his dad was the sMy mam probably has ADHD Been told I'm autistic but I don't know Not too sure about this pop culture pathologizing of personality traits either though
