Hello all,
I choosed Atrapa Almas name, I did used it for a long time for games. In spanish it means "Soul Catcher" and It was the name of a character of a fantasy book I liked. It resonates with me since I try to take cool and nice parts of others personalities and abilities and incorporate them to myself to grow as a person.
I would sumarize myself as 70% INTJ and 30% ASPIE. I know the Myers Briggs is not scientific not very trustable, but well... The INTJ description just suits me very well. I also have Autistic traits, and I have identified them in some members my family. I told them but that world is like an insult for them. I guess they will learn by themselfs if they happen to have childs with enought traits to be diagnosed...
I probably dont have enought traits to be considered autist now, and maybe not even Aspie when I was young. Not in Spain, where I am from. If I was a child now, I think I could get into the diagnose box. Not sure, since much of the diagnose thing is based on "how many problems and what kind of problems do I have" and not much based on "how do I percieve the world, my values or ethics". I dont want to pay 1k EURO for a deep diagnose either. Maybe some day in the future.
I am reading now some books about autism and learning a lot about it. Many things in my past and present make more sense. I am also more aware of my energy management.
I find a strong difference when I read NT books or articles about autism and when I read Temple Grandin ones. Or when I read post from autists. Its like autists logics, and the way they write its more natural to me. Opossed to NT texts, were I must sort suppositions, ill information, and egos like I was opening my way in the jungle with a big knife.
So I enter this forum and registered, I hope to read a lot of nice, logic, ordered and understable things that will let me learn and feel conected to others that process info more like I do.
Thanks for reading, I am aware that I write walls of text and that my english have mistakes.
