What are your most common autistic traits?

my most prominent is definitely eye contact, which causes more issues than you'd think to be fully honest. I always feel the need to look away/close my eyes and I tend to do a mix of both at once and a lot of people think I'm rolling my eyes at them... which makes people assume I'm annoyed/not listening. I also have bad introception and auditory sensitivity.

Change in my normal routine and uncertainty really stresses me out. I desperately long for positive changes in my life but then I procrastinate on taking those next steps or my anxiety takes over. It takes me a lot longer to adjust to change than it would someone without autism spectrum disorder too. Plus I get overstimulated very easily around people and have social anxiety really bad. The good aspects of my most autistic traits are my creativity, artistic abilities and freakishly good memory. Also I am very smart and wise beyond my years in some areas of life but in other areas I'm very immature and naive. I have asbergers syndrome which is very mild high and functioning autism.

Overstimulation is huge! Sometimes if my partner rubs my arm too much in one spot it physically hurts! Also I could never figure out how to do conversations with multiple people, it seems like everyone knows exactly when it's their turn to talk but I don't, I always interrupt everyone. I also can't stand it when people feel the need to stand so darn close to me! There's plenty of space back up a few feet please 🙏. Also I have to bring my earbuds with me to the store because people are too loud!

eye contact, stimming, being overstimulated !!

Issues with tone, emotional regulation/understanding my own emotions, and no eye contact

I would say struggle to let something drop in a conversation. Like there’s a part of me that just cannot shut up about something once something I’m interested in pops up in a conversation or I have something to say about it. It’s just so hard just to move on. Errrgh always struggled with that
