I feel like I used to have aspergers but I grew out of it with age or something 2

Yeah, or maybe it was doing LSD a bunch of times throughout the past few years. Somewhere along the lines I kinda just "snapped out of it."
I used to be like really odd and have trouble fitting in and just generally stick out as an elephant in the room. I was "that weird kid" like the majority of the time in social situations nd shit. Just a couple years ago even. I think I was seriously on the verge of losing my mind for a while actually when I was around 18.
Now I seem to fit in really well socially, although I can be semi-awkward meeting people sometimes but that's about it. I freely share love and humor with people, I don't get anxious when I think people are criticizing me. I'm fun to be around.
Basically i'm a pretty normal guy for the most part these days besides being a party animal.
So, like,
Does anybody else here feel this way? That their personality or ways of thinking have drastically changed throughout time?

i find that the more weed i smoke, the more antisocial and "weird" i get. the more caffeine and booze i do, the more "normal" and sociable i get.
it's crazy how drugs affect my personality like that.

Yeah man, weed in specific has a way of making people act dumb as shit compared to other drugs. It robs people of their confidence and leaves them as a baked second-guessing mess of anxiety sometimes.

YES! I thought I had aspergers as well (not high spectrum autism) but I've never been diagnosed with it. I never really asked to go see a doctor about it because I'm sure I'd turn down any medications they gave me but I feel as though my experiences with DMT, LSA, and Amanita Muscaria mushrooms have given me a better acceptance of who I am and the world around me. It's much easier for me to accept what I do not know and taught me to love myself which has given me a major confidence boost and has allowed me to do the things I really love without worrying as much about the judgement of others. I'm still working on getting over this but I seem to have made a LOT of progress over the last 2 years. I still have huge issues with keeping a conversation with most people unless they're really down to earth and can talk about hippie shit with me..things that matter in the world, psychedelics, corruption in the world, or really just anyone with an intelligent, free, and open mind. I wouldn't say I'm normal though or that I really got over it (If that is what I have) but I have learned to use whatever is going on in my brain to work to my advantage.

the last doctor i saw diagnosed me as asperger's but i too feel like tripping has helped me. mdma is being looked into for therapeutic value in autistic adults with social anxiety... might have to go for some free therapy funded by MAPS

Why does everyone here think tripping is the cure to literally every illness?

did i say it did? no.
mdma has potential therapeutic values because of it's effect on the amygdala and hippocampus, and a few other regions... so it can be used in problems relating to anxiety. i don't get how you don't understand that these drugs cause new neural growth that can be exploited to alleviate a variety of symptoms.
most psychedelics have a lot of therapeutic and medicinal values

i think i might have assburgers too.
it gets really difficult for me to communicate sometimes, it;s like my mind is moving at a million miles per hour and my words have trouble catching up to it and they end going all over the place.
i was really social as a kid up until like the 5grade after i moved to a new school things started getting weird, i think it was just that the friends i had from the other school were more tolerant of my bs, but like after i changed schools, different city n shit, it was never the same after that.
drugs definitely helped me loosen up a bit, specifically weed and psychedelics like mushrooms and cactus juice. they didnt really fix me persay, buy rather showed me who i really was and helped me become comfortable with that fact.
i am still a social mess per se, but the only difference now is i could care less about it. i understand it's just the way i am.

MDMA is not good for someone with an anxiety disorder long term.
Maybe while the drug is active, but MDMA is neurotoxic as fuck and long term probably causes more depression/ anxiety in social situations.

that's not true at all. PTSD is very much anxiety related. mdma is not 'neurotoxic as fuck' and is probably safe when used in moderation, and can help alleviate the problem in psychedelic-assisted therapy by allowing the person to revisit traumatic experiences, reprocess them and store them as non-threatening in the mind. any damage incurred is probably not permanent either considering how the brain repairs itself. you know what is neurotoxic? alcohol. you recover from that too.
your anti-drug attitude sucks when it comes to stuff like this.

I love MDMA but it is neurotoxic as hell. 
It destroys the serotonin axons too btw.

MDMA is neurotixc at all doses.
It is probably the most neurotoxic recreational drug besides high doses of meth, but even then dopamine recovers much faster then serotonin.
