I dont think I stim and at first I thought maybe I am not on the spectrum because of that fact but I guess everyone on the spectrum is different thats why its refered to as a spectrum and that I can still be on the spectrum even if I am not exactly the same as anyone on the spectrum.

Now I do have problems with porn and masterbation and I am wondering if this could be considered stim. Any time I am depressed, anxious, or frustrated I usually have the urge to view porn and masterbate but I cant just do that whenever. I usually try to resist the urge maybe it builds and I give in when I have the oppertunity. I always figured that I used porn as an escape from depression and anxiety but could it have anything to do with Autism? Or could I replace porn for some other type of stim? If it is stim how likely is it for me to cut it out or stop doing it completely because Ive been trying to cut porn from my life ever since i started but I try to replace with some other type of stim instead?
