    I’m not diagnosed, only lately suspecting, but well, one experience that stuck with me, was on a communications training at my workplace, which is an IT company, so the participants were a whole sack of nerds.

    The trainer gave us instructions to stand in a line next to each other, she’d read forms of communication and we should take a step forward, if we did not like that form of communcation.

    So, “e-mail” → 3 people take a step forward,
    “phone call” → 7 people take a step forward etc…

    At the end of it, I turned around to see where the others ended up and realized I had walked almost twice as far as everyone else. And I felt like I was rather conservative about it, too…
