Feeling perpetually socially isolated is terrible Hi folks, I'm a 24M that has been diagnosed with Level 1 Autism (that one which used to be called Asperger's syndrome) last year. Throughout my whole life, I always felt very disconnected from people at large. I was always a very curious person, and have always had hyperfocuses (the Titanic, the Sasanian Empire, the Byzantine Empire, the German Empire, WW1, dreadnought battleships, astronomy, certain videogames, like all GTAs and RDR1, to name a few). When I was a kid, I was constantly praised by teachers and family alike for how quickly I was able to learn to read and write, and, in their opinion, how smart I was. But I never really connected with classmates much... And that social deficiency has haunted me ever since. As much as, thankfully, I made good friends along the way, I'm simply thoroughly inedaquate to the society I live in (Brazil)... I can understand irony, metaphors, and sarcasm pretty well, but everything else kind of falls flat.…
