The more I read this, the more I am convinced that the protog might be autistic. Obviously...

You mean sangwoo?


I ---- I'm kinda like him in the sense of being specific/stubborn (???) on things I prefer (chair location, brand of coffee, schedule etc). Even brand/kind of pens or ramen or milk or facial cleanser. Lmao.

It's an honest question, should I get myself examined if I'm on (???) any spectrum of autism?

ohh yes you’re right

Yep I've been thinking that since the beginning. I know a few people on the Autism.

Not really. If it doesn't get in the way of your daily life, then there's no problem.

(I mean, if you're older than, idk 17, and it hasn't bothered you a bit, then not really?)

I think autism it's on more severe cases when it actually doesn't let them do what they want and when something goes wrong, they can't continue. For example, if you buy a certain kind of drink every day like MC does and suddenly they're out, some (not all of them) autism patients actually throw a fit and can't like move on from that. I only say this from what I know from observing my nephew (he's autistic).

But if you're still unsure, go ahead and do a check up. There's nothing wrong with double checking. There's nothing wrong with being autistic. It just makes you special (⌒▽⌒)

I agree there's nothing wrong with being on the autism spectrum! However, looking into it and finding coping mechanisms for situations you find challenging might be helpful. I only think of this with my friend who was diagnosed with Asperger's as an adult. He and his wife realized there were so many misunderstandings because they didn't know how to help him process some things. Now they have the "tools" they need and it's brought them a lot closer together.

I assure you he's not autistic. Sure, he's pedantic and antisocial but as you can see, he's getting pissed/miserable/annoyed when his usual routines are being canceled and then looks for alternatives. A person with ASD in the same situation would've engaged themself in self-stimulatory behaviors at some point to cope with their emotions caused by stress. Your assumption about mc having autism is on the same level as assuming that a person who looks sad has depression.

it’s not the same for everyone actually. they don’t have to have the same coping mechanisms and reactions to be autistic

Ohhhhhhh... I have my suspicions but just like what you said, it doesnt really bother me that much. The only major shit that affect me was with time, cz if I cant get or do what I want/needed to do, I dont stop until I get them/did them. Like, with papers, if i dont have the specific pen to use for writing, I won't do it. Lmao. My excuses to procrastinate.

I already graduated univ and I didnt really paid attention to it, so yeah. It just kinda shocked (???) me cz Sangwoo and I have that similarities, and I find it interesting cz you guys have the same suspicions... so that's that.

Thanks for the info btw. ╮(￣▽￣)╭

I suggest you read what ASD is first. I'm willing to bet money that you are not on the autism spectrum

I suggest you read what ASD is first before going and getting examed. I'm willing to bet money that you are not on the autism spectrum

Idk much about autism but I kinda feel like he might have OCD? Maybe idk I don't know much about OCD ethier..

nah OCD is not something like that

Thanks for the suggestion.

I have my suspicions but just like what Ikeun said, it doesnt really bother me that much.

And I'm not saying that the mechanisms are the same. I'm looking at this specific case. My point is if a person with autism was triggered as much as the mc, they would've used a special coping mechanism (at least some sort of self-stimulatory behavior) and the mc doesn't. He acts like any other person without autism. There is nothing unusual about trying to avoid the person who annoys you, buying another drink even though it's not your favorite etc

You don't have to worry so much. Especially if it doesn't severely get in the way of your daily life. A lot of my teachers thought I was autistic in school too, but it just turned out I just had a few minor learning disabilities. So if you're not too bothered by your predilections then I think you're okay.

Well, the mc is not autistic, that's for sure.

Having certain fixed habits and being stubborn about them doesn't equal autism, like being momentary sad doesn't equal depression. We need a complex network of symptoms to get diagnosed with anything that is considered a disorder.
