Caption: “Realizes that ‘pat yourself on the back’ is just an expression/Doesn't care, continues to pat shoulder as a reward for good behavior”
I don’t get touched very often because it can be stressful and even physically painful at times. I find that associating physical touch with good things is very helpful, even if it’s just me patting my own limbs.

Caption: “Constantly on the bus/Turns down rides from friends because it would ruin the routine”
The trolleys in my town are always late so I tend to arrive places really early just in case. I think I spend more time waiting than working.

Caption: “Worries about going nonverbal/Goes nonverbal due to resulting stress ”
I usually only go nonverbal if I'm under duress. I can groan but that's pretty much it. Luckily, it doesn't last too long.

Caption: “Gets tired and forgets how to walk normally/’Why are your arms dangling at your sides?’”
Caption: “Forgets to take off clothes in very specific order/Gets stuck and gives up halfway through”
I walk around my house with one sock, pants mid-thigh, and only one arm in a jacket sleeve on a startlingly regular basis.

Caption: “Walks through bushes before noticing a neat path/Takes same route back because of OCD”
This happens to me constantly and going through doorways is even worse. I will leave the exact same way I came in, thank you very much.

Caption: “Why are you avoiding my eyes?/Because I’m afraid you’ll somehow see my secrets with your facial recognition powers”
One of the many reasons I don’t like eye contact is my fear that someone will misconstrue an accidental expression on my face or, even worse, somehow read one that I’m actually feeling. Like what if I was secretly irritated or in love with with them and they magically picked that up? It might happen for all I know, I don’t understand how this works.

Caption: “Randomly gets complicated words stuck in head/Can’t remember what day it is”
Sometimes it’s whole phrases or song lyrics. I wake up with it playing over and over in my head. This can last for hours or months.
