I had to have collections of things apparently. Like if I saw a group of different coloured unicorn plushies in the store I couldn't buy just one of them, no I had to have the entire set. Every colour unicorn available. And to this day I still collect things. Haha I was super scared of a lot of things too, even going outside sometimes, but that's for reasons I'd rather not discuss online.
I was also pretty accident-prone apparently... really accident prone to the point where it was life-threatning quite a bit. :v I guess that goes to show how dense/clumsy I was as a kid.
I've been told that I was talkative and a clean freak when I was little, but both of those changed as I got older and now I'm the complete opposite of what I was. My family now regrets teaching me to be quiet and being a slob.
I don’t really know how I was like, but I remember a story I was told x) One time I had received a piece of candy, my parents told me to wait until the next day to eat it, since it was the evening and it’s not really a good idea to eat sweets in the evening. The next day, my parents had completely forgotten about it, and they couldn’t figure out why I was sulking until they remembered xD And also I don’t know if it counts as "child", but I’ve kept my old blogs from when I was a pretty young teenager, and oml I can’t help but cringe every time I go back to them xD
I was a total bookworm. I read the dictionary for fun. I read Harry Potter in a week, and read Percy Jackson so much that my parents actually had to punish me with NOT reading.
^ same!! I loved reading books as a kid. except it was less fiction novels and more like... animal fact related books, if that makes sense. i just really liked reading about animals back then. =o
Very introverted, quiet. Always observing the world around me...I guess I'm still the same way as an adult. haha
Yeah, I can remember what I was like as a child...and I could die from embarrassment. I was antisocial and awkward all through my early school years. It was only when I was about 14 that I started to be social on a more regular basis. I also tended to take what people said at face value and wasn't always quite on the same page as everyone else, which led to some embarrassing incidents...
^ I was the opposite. As a child I was super outgoing and friendly and would talk to anyone about anything. Now I'm really introverted and awkward (at least IRL, and a bit online too). I also apparently had an obsession with doing things with my eyes closed. Apparently once I ran around a playground, eyes shut, until I toppled over somebody else's stroller.
A better person lmao. I was a bright kid. Very healthy, very social. Oh but I was super accident-prone. I broke so many things, including myself.
It was pretty bad for me as my parents didn't want me but only kept me because it was the right thing. My mother was a bit better though.
I spent most of my time indoors watching TV, reading, or playing extensively with my Thomas the Tank Engine toy sets. My autism was a bit more severe then, which led to me not knowing how to express things verbally. If I had a fear I would show discomfort, but not say anything about it. When walking in public, I would look down out of fear of giving someone eye contact. This continued into my teenage years where I finally became self aware about it. Despite my shyness, I was still an upbeat kid. I always looked forward to trying new things and spending time with the few friends I had.
