    In general?

    I would say autistic fixations are intense interests, sometimes inappropriate things in the eyes of non autistic people, sometimes maybe just obscure.

    Cool username btw.

      Thanks.

      I’m currently trying to forget about an anime.

        Hm… often a fixation like that tells you you need love in your life or friendship. Is that possible?

          Not sure why downvoted. I’d say if a fixation comes with voluntary self-isolation it shows that something is amiss, although it might not be the lack of love.

          I found that I very much hide inside of my obscure interests when subconsciously talking about important stuff with my loved ones.

            Oh wow. Yes, I didnt think that either. Some people probably felt called out or misunderstood what I meant.

            Obviously, it can be a range of things. I tried to factor in what things are displayed in animes a lot. Often its success, reliable plot, emotion, sexuality, etc.
