I have a few minor yet strong mental quirks, and I'm curious if there's a term for these patterns or if anyone else has something similar. THREAD:
My dad definitely has full blown aspergers so I grew up knowing exactly the stimuli that would set him off, and it's very much like what you describe. We switched out our glass table for a wooden one because of clanks, and he had a lot of trouble in larger crowds.

I'm mostly suspicious of my own sensitivity because I know what actual aspergers is like and I know I don't have that; there's lots of ways in which I actually am more insensitive than average.

Still learning so much about this & myself as it's a fresh discovery, so likely inaccurate. When I found out, parents read up on it; it all resonated with my dad except the sensitivity. He's actually hypo-sensitive to a lot of things. Know another seeking diagnosis who is as well
