Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Autist checking in, its a big problem for many of us too.
Yesterday I discovered a new tactic for the stuff I had been putting off all year. I started getting so angry at the fact that ive been putting myself though agony all year over some tasks that would take a few hours I nearly saw red.
I powered through them in about 4 hours, and I probably spent 400 hours agonizing over them.
I dubbed it ragetasking
Not healthy but it worked, not sure if I can harness it again haha

Also in the past, at least in US with DSM-4 it was thought that ASD and ADHD are mutually exclusive, so there's probably a lot of people incorrectly missing that diagnosis.
DSM-5 superseded that in May 2013.
Yea i would definitely use that power sparingly lol. My dad was undiagnosed with ADHD till his 40s and he used rage/anger to get things done all throughout his younger years and he has a lot of stomach problems due to a number of factors such as severe reflux and other similar things. Not saying they were all directly caused by the anger, but it's pretty accepted with my family and others that the anger probably exacerbated things.
Also, i feel like in some, not all, regards ADHD and Autism can be two sides of the same coin. I've definitely wondered before whether I might be at least a little bit on the spectrum.
Haha thanks. I found out in my early 40s as well, I just assumed I was just a lazy procrastinator my whole life until that point, and not naturally angry. I dealt with this and other symptoms by self medicating with weed and being a stoner for most of my adult life.
Agreed that it is two sides of the same coin.
