    I can't stand the fact that even a small noise can set off my senses. I wish there was a way to soothe it.

    How about buying some noise cancellation headphones? Or something like Loop earplugs?

    Is it weird to buy same books twice because I like the other cover better?

    Not at all (at least for me). I have several books double because of that. Fellow bookworms!

    So, my friends and family have commented on the fact that I copied behavior from others. I simply told them I was always good at playing pretend.

    I try to copy good behaviour. Doing what others do can be good or bad depending on which others we are talking about.

    Wow, apparently imposter syndrome is pretty common among autistic people. That's comforting in a way...

    It seems to mean we’re good at masking but lack self-confidence. I’ve certainly struggled with that.

    Indeed every common. I know I feel guilty when I shouldn’t

    Masking wise, I’m doing better but it is still a work in progress

    I thought that was normal.

    Apparently, my hearing is better than average, which explains why noises bother me so much. Misophonia is no joke.

    While I don't have this. I'll agree that it's asking someone to do the impossible.

    I'm sure an NT will come in here and tell you to grow up 😂 @Misty Avich

    Misophonia is a real thing and I think there should be remote homes in the middle of fields for us to live comfortably because neighbour noise is my most triggering misophonia sounds

    I wish I could interpret facial expressions better, then I would have an easier time telling when trouble is coming.

    Is having a monotone normal for autistic people?

    Yes. It is a typical feature of Autism. Due to our lack of understanding of vocal tone and how it works in relation to communicating feelings, intentions, and thoughts.

    It's something we can adjust, and minimize, with practice.
