    Well I live with snakes and lizards
    And other things that go bump in the night
    'Cause to me everyday is Halloween
    I have given up hiding and started to fight
    I have started to fight

    Well any time, any place, anywhere that I go
    All the people seem to stop and stare
    They say "why are you dressed like it's Halloween?
    You look so absurd, you look so obscene"

    Oh, why can't I live a life for me?
    Why should I take the abuse that's served?
    Why can't they see they're just like me
    It's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world

    Well I let their teeny minds think
    That they're dealing with someone who is over the brink
    And I dress this way just to keep them at bay
    'Cause Halloween is everyday
    It's everyday

    Oh, why can't I live a life for me?
    Why should I take the abuse that's served?
    Why can't they see they're just like me
    It's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world

    Oh, why can't I live a life for me?
    Why should I take the abuse that's served?
    Why can't they see they're just like me
    I'm not the one that's so absurd

    Why hide it why fight it?
    Hurt feelings best to stop feeling hurt
    Denials, reprisals
    It's the same it's the same in the whole wide world

    My mum used to think I was autistic but she thinks everyone who isn't like her is. Maybe it's just being Ni. Actual autism is a bit different, though I suppose it's not entirely wrong to say that Ni can show certain traits of autism, but not enough to be equivalent to actual autism. You could argue the same for stuff like Ti. Dissociation is not the first thing I think of when I think of autism. I do it a lot, but I'm not autistic.

    I wont say Ni is the polar opposit of autism, but it's close enough. People who don't know shit about autism should not throw out those lables so readily. They are only making themselves look like shitheads and encourage misinformation.

    By that I'm illustrating what they mean when they say "knowledge is power" to the ones not knowing slapping a faulty label on something in order to devalue them is wielding power. Make sure that you always know the facts before backing down to someones criticism.

    That's an archaic and smarmy use of "autism," not ASD. Ni would be more like psychosis, which is usually considered related in being cut off from the outside world but also the polar opposite of ASD in many ways.

    I refuse being typed IEI then!!

    No, honestly though, I was thinking someone I knew with autism was IEI actually I didn't really correlate it to the type just... that happens to be his likely typing. I've always been curious when into MBTI how a lot of people with autism would type, particularly on the S/N front. Interesting topic... I actually knew a self-proclaimed SEI with autism too. I'm not sure if he typed himself correctly though.

    I would correlate Ni with psychosis more as well based on what I know about Ni, but the prospect of it being related to ASD is interesting

    I've also seen plenty of cases of co-morbid ASD and a psychotic disorder...

    Posting because this is an extremely high-quality astute observation and summary and it needs to be framed for posterity and deserves more likes.

    EII: are you worried about Covid?
    LSI: no! I’m going to beat it if I get it
    EII: are you worried about global warming?
    LSI: yes!
    EII: if you are worried that pretty much means we are screwed. I guess we’re all gonna die
    LSI: we all die eventually

    How is this being helpful
    -
    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    Everyone says you're the least judgmental person they've met, except for the delta NF's.

    You smile wide and happy for the camera. When you later see the photo, you get genuinely scared for a second cause you look like a psychotic movie villain.
