So essentially he wasn't part of your life until later, and then once he realized you had difficulties in some areas he backed out?
Well if she wants to move out even afterwards then it might be wise to do so, gives both of you some distance so stress and anger isn't built up as easily.
I would still aim to check up on her though, being suicidal is a dangerous thing, especially when left completely alone.
Though I'm not actually there sitting in your situation, so I can only give advice as an outsider with limited information on the matter.
Essentially your eyes have a cryst and your ears have a kind of liquid infection if I'm understanding this right?
If so, I'd definitely suggest asking your Doctor about it, and see if they think you should be referred to an eye and/or ear doctor about this stuff.
Or even just see what they think the odds of these causing migraines may be for you.
If they don't think so you can still get your Doctor to at least look at the stuff and make sure it's ok, if anything else may be the cause etc.
Hygiene should be fixable as easy as remembering to take a shower either every day or every 2 days.
Or, simply taking a shower before you head out of the house anywhere and/or when you expect company.
It doesn't need to be something you instinctively care about, just something you ingrain as part of a routine.
+This doesn't depend though on what you mean by "Never taught some things".
Slumping over would depend on the cause. If it's your natural position then just practicing moving around straight up should fix it over time.
If it's the result of a neck/back problem though, that is also something a Doctor should look at. You can only fight muscle pains so much without medical assistance.
That being said though, I wouldn't let something like slumping over concern you too much. A lot of people (including me) have that as their natural state.
Talking to yourself, once again this is something I've seen a lot of people (including me) do a lot.
Though this is also reliant on the level of it, is this more of a "thinking out loud" sort of deal, or do you walk about having entire conversations with yourself?
If it's the latter I can see the issue a bit more, and in that case the first step would be identifying why you're doing that, and then working on ways to ween off your reliance/need to do so.
When you say "Use my hands more to talk than talk to people" do you mean you just naturally use your hands a lot while talking? Or do you mean you substitute words with physical gestures a lot?
Cause the former is completely fine (and healthy) as long as it comes with verbal communication. The latter, you can try to solve that just by practicing speaking up a bit more, you don't need to stop the physical gestures, you just need to make sure there's also that verbal component.
With eye contact? In all honesty people usually only do eye contact 30% of the time. And that's assuming there isn't any diagnosis. People with diagnosis's like ADHD, dyslexia etc. also have it lower. And those diagnosis's (along with Autism) are growing in frequency (if one wants to argue it's actual prevalence or awareness is for another time. Regardless the point is that it's a more commonly noticed trait among people now). So working on eye contact does not by any stretch of the imagination require you to look into the other persons eyes 100% of the time. Pauses, instances of looking elsewhere is perfectly fine. This is something where really you can afford to just do it in brief periods and then look elsewhere, it's common behaviour anyways. Just as long as there's *some* eye contact involved.
By raising your voice do you mean like angry raising, or just volume raising?
If angry I'd suggest asking yourself why you're getting angry, and thinking of ways to calm yourself down.
If it's volume, honestly I'd go check out your ear doctors with the Doctor first then. Cause it could easily just be a case of you don't hear yourself well, so you feel the need to speak up.
If your ear's aren't the issue, then start looking for what specifically causes it, like is it all the time around peers? Or is it something specific the peers do? Once you identify the cause, try to think of a technique you can use to monitor your own volume when that situation pops up.
Lastly, getting along with different age groups is common with people.
Often getting along with older people is a sign of maturity, not a sign of anything wrong with you.
I'm assuming you're not immune to liking people your own age though correct? If they were your age, but acted mature and more like an adult you two would still get along?
... It's 2015, this mentality should not be around anymore. >.<
Autism's a very well (and common) diagnosis in society.
And also, judging from how we're interacting I'd easily say you fall on the Asperger's spectrum of Autism.
Which is essentially the High Functioning end, it means you're doing well off with the Autism and being able to work on it should be a lot easier for you than it would be for people further down the spectrum.
Especially considering you're self aware of your issues and actively seeking out help for it.
A lot of people are that way. Including a bunch of people here on Iwaku.
That being said being able to interact with people RL is an important skill to have.
But you do not by any stretch of the imagination need to be enjoying it or prefer it.
As long as you can function in RL social interactions, and sort out the stuff that needs to be sorted may it be work, school, shopping, picking up a delivery etc. then you're fine.
Anything more than that honestly just comes down to personal preferences and one's way of living.
So if you prefer your main method to be Roleplaying then more power to you.
The best advice that can then come from that point forward then is honestly just how to keep RP's alive, making good RP's etc.
And personally my ability/knowledge in that regard is simply average. If you want to get better at that stuff there's a
Roleplay Institute section that offers guides, exercises etc to help people improve at roleplaying and sharpen there skills.
And if you ever just want to expand your online social circle there's always
General Chat. the
Cbox, and the Teamspeak room.
You can download the program here.
