sorry i'll agree i was very vague with what i wrote, ofcourse the majority of autistic people will be introverts, what i meant was that if you are going to put introversion and autism on the same scale then there is a line where the person will change from an introvert to suffering from autism.
well my point was that he has reached that part of the spectrum to show more of an autistic behavior rather than regular introvertic.
You've never just been sad and lonely before? It gets to you over time. Sometimes so much that people break down in order to cope.

He is an extreme introvert with ocd tendencies. If he was autistic he wouldn't be so calm when people touched him, instead of showing extreme discomfort he would probably scream or something, the reaction would be much more severe. Also notice how not being touched doesn't make it into the bedroom? Because he isn't autistic, but rather the not being touched is more likely linked to ocd/being an introvert.
I think it's just because he's hates people in general.
He huge Anglia
Hand sex with his drug dealer
But when someone touches him out of his own terms it bothers him.

well if we are going into detail, we can divide autism into two types, highly functioning autistic adults or low functioning.
the latter part would not be able to live alone, whereas the first one can live a manageable life like he is doing on the show.
they usually have really bad short-term memory which is shown a few times in the show, for instance in the scene where he realises again that he is almost out of drugs 'again', stating it has occured several times.
and mdma has been proven in recent studies to improve the social functions and anxiety of autistic people which could be the reason why he had sex with his dealer, stating 'shit i make bad decisions on drugs'.
also this is getting out of hand so lets just drop it, maybe they will reveal later on what exactly his problem is, i mean it's only the first episode so far
also just because he stays calm when people touch him off drugs does not rule out autism
He does smoke alot of weed lmfao. Could be the reason you think his short term memory is bad.
The reason he ran out is because he doesn't prioritize his drug habit. He takes morphine when we needs it to help him cope. The other drug was simply there encase in needed to come down.
He didn't say it was a bad decision to do MDMA and have sex. He just stated "Never make decisions when you're on morphine". Which would go back to when his drug dealer entered and how he was just trying to get her to leave by stand by the open door. When she offered him free MDMA he jumped on it. You don't just not get horny as fuck on Ex lol. So of course he fucked her.

no but drugs can explain WHY an autistic person decides to have sex in the first place if he dislikes touching in the normal life which was the point, thought it was pretty clear
also the tv show is literally called MR ROBOT, which has been an unofficial way to explain autistic behavior or robotic behavior.
either way im fine with you believing he is not autistic, i dont feel the same way.
he's showing way too many symptoms for me to ignore and i'll just keep on believing that while i watch the show until i get proven wrong
The title is referring to the person he met on the train... Not himself...
