Why are my perceptions and actions so different from other people?

[BornToDiee]

I usually perceive people's words in a very different sense and I usually don't understand what people say or I understand them in a very different way. And I perform very differently from other people in things like education and art. I'm not a very successful person. Being a different person from the outside may seem fun, but I know from my own life that it's not as fun as it seems. I can't be like other people even if I want to.

Another way to describe you, and each of us, is... unique!
We are all so unique and different, but just by our human nature we have a lot in common too. When I am having some doubts about myself, how I fit in, I try to go easy on myself, "go with grace", and realize that we are all unique and different but that is a good thing, what makes life interesting. Send me a PM if you want to talk about perspective and attitude further. re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

I’m like you I never really fit in. When people talk to me I hear very little. If I do hear them it’s as they are talking some odd language. For an example they say a 20 words sentence I will understand maybe 3 of the words and the rest are some weird words. Even if I use good quality headphones while watching tv is still the same. Forget music. No it is not Autism been checked for it. The problem I have is what people say. 90 percent of the time I can replace the word I don’t hear/understand with correct word I think they are saying. It’s the other 10 percent of the time people sometimes times get upset with me. What I do then is pass the blame on them by telling them to please talk in English.

Maybe you have autism? I don't know, maybe I'm projecting my own autism because I feel like a damn alien compared to most of you fuckers.
