Hello,
As the title says, my name is Daniel. I am an Aspie living in the North of England, currently studying and trying to solve various problems associated with Asperger that I have.
Even though now I have mild Asperger (specially compared to myself in previous years and to other people), I still have some traits that I want to solve (or reduce), so without wasting time, I'll ask three of them:
1: I get bored very often. Specially when I am not doing physical exercise nor being with someone else; when I am some hours without being physically active, I start to feel tired. However, in the North of England I experienced that the culture is prone to loneliness and the city I am in is quiet with few activities, therefore, there are a few external factors as well (not saying that my boredom does not include internal factors, but the external do play a part). As well as that, I do not know how to be spontaneous, I always do something with a purpose or objective in mind, but I see that this makes most things boring and the result should not be the main aim, yet I have no idea how to do this. How do I solve this frequent boredom?
2: It's very hard for me to be focused on the present; I am almost always (mentally) somewhere else, in time and/or place. However, I admit that when I am on a travel I am enjoying a lot I am VERY present. At home, I can live the present for a few hours in a day, but the rest of the hours are spent on overthinking. How do you live the present?
3: I overthink, specially over-analyze. How do you stop thinking too much on trying to solve problems and/or analyzing everything?
Many thanks in advance.
