Does anime give you autism? Or does frogposting on this god forsaken board do it?

If you like anime you already have autism.

I don't ACTUALLY have autism, but I'm 30 years old and live at home as a NEET, so there's your frame of reference.
Other than kiddy shit like Dragon Ball and Pokemon in the 90s, I didn't start watching anime until I was 28.
I did start posting on 4chan when I was about 22, and that was when my life went downhill.

Its a chicken or the egg problem
If you watch animu you definitely have the 'tism, but whether or not the autism or the anime came first is the debate
frogposting turns you into a superhuman
Liking anime turns you into an autist, and stopping it still leaves you indelibly scarred.

If the anime is stopping you from killing yourself then I don't see a problem.

It actually is. I started watching anime because I got shitcanned from my job and lost all contact with my former friends and my dog died. Finding this whole new world was my reason to wake up at all in the afternoons.
Op here I dont watch anime just japanise cartoons and I only post toads

Why not try vidya? Something like Skyrim, for example, where you're actually a part of this "whole new world".

I actually also got into vidya really late in life. My parents were anti-technology retards so I didn't get my own video games until I was 23. Skyrim on the PS3 was one of my first games and consoles.
Video games are really great, but RPGs and open world games especially turn into an ordeal where I just get depressed and anxious in that whole new world because I haven't found all the collectibles or a I failed a quest or something. With like online shooting games I might just get totally angry because I had a shit match with idiots on my team, etc.
Don't get me wrong it's amazing 99% of the time, but the enjoyment of video games has a bell curve where the more you play them the more of an obligation and addiction that they become.
No one ever wakes up tired and in a bad mood because they watched too many anime episodes, or listened to too much anime music.
Nothing "gives you" autism. Getting obsessed with anime just shows you had it all along.
