    Thank you very much. In a one on one conversation, I usually can participate and talk, but if there are multiple people around me, it almost always ends up with me just not participating in the conversation unless someone specifically asks me something. Also, I really suck at reading body language, so sometimes I misread it and assume someone is uncomfortable with a topic and change it, and only later realise that it was just my imagination.

        Wow, that’s exactly right, I don’t have a problem learning or analysing extremely gruesome stuff, I don’t get phased by it, especially if you describe it clinically, though I don’t do well with very gory pictures.

        I do know I have ADHD, but your guess of autism might also be true… I never got diagnosed.

        I will try that game. I always assumed my troubles socialising were just because I never had any friends as a kid and only started reaching out to other people in my mid 20’s, so my brain never developed in these areas. It might be that it’s working memory (though I am unsure about it, since I always assumed I am average or above average in that field).
