I'm very high functioning, but yes, there is a tendency towards black and white thinking, and my big fault: being entirely too literal.

The black and white thinking can be gotten under control but it takes the discipline of being able to block the knee jerk reaction and either think about other angles and viewpoints, or, in some cases, to do a bit of research.

So, its do-able, but it takes effort, a lot of effort in some cases, and it can feel unnatural. In my case, I love to research, so that's' not to bad.

I'm still working on the issue with taking things too literally, and writing things too literally. Though perhaps "literally" isn't the right term; call it a "massive lack of tact."
