    People don't believe me when I tell them I'm Autistic. Thoughts?

    If I wear rainbow flag clothes and straight people come up to me to ask if I am gay, then I would say "Yes, I am on the Autistic spectrum!" They walk away looking so perplexed (It is so good to be Autistic!) I always try to set a good example, the above was for example purposes only

    0) Imagine if you will for a moment, there is nothing wrong with you, everybody has exactly the same internal experience ... equal but different to your self experience of struggle with your self experience such that certain questions become logical and or reasonable?

    Is Life Really Supposed To Be This Lonely

    Duh!, you say you feel nothing yet you are using the language of emotional landscapes to describe your position. You perceive you don't when you do! You keep ignoring it as emotion while you schedule other matters as prioritisation but that too exists because of the need to be different from...

    Is Life Really Supposed To Be This Lonely

    For Pete'smoke: The Lankavatara Sutra is a thing I read many years ago. It literally revolutionised my mind and has provided me with a glimpse beyond. That for me will be for the greatest party ever imagined, the moment of unity when all sentient life is liberated from suffering. Wishing us all...

    Is Life Really Supposed To Be This Lonely

    In referring to Obsession as an energizing focus you are making an awful error of judgement. Learning the basis of our individual niche approaches serves to refocus, as I stated earlier, as any of us continue to do what we have always done, we will only get what we have already got. You also...

    Should have read: We then have ^to^ learn There is no edit function on this board else the last paragraph would have been split for easier reading. Sorry about these mistakes, hope all this helps? Alexandra.

    Is Life Really Supposed To Be This Lonely

    The social definition of Disability provides sustinence for inspiration. With a little additive of "no pain-no gain" for good measure. Firstly: Who said YOU were at fault? Self doubt is one of the ways we recognise each other. Self doubt goes hand in hand with a sensitive soul. Now here is the...

    Aspergers+Schizophrenia

    I too hear a voice. It is the sense of actualisation of subconscious thoughts. I recently watched a documentary on ant colony intelligence and average colony thinking where numerous people were asked the weight of a large object, a cow in this case, when all the guesses were averaged the final...

    Aspergers+Schizophrenia

    Hi Blackrainbow? How should I call you, it is a little difficult to write Blackrainbow every time I want to refer to you, I believe in courtesies as a natural way of communicating all the essentials of an intelligent conversation without endangering the sensitivity or sensibility of the 'other'...

    Asperger types are not autistic

    What is the point of the struggle over labels? We are each and all individuals. Most differences are required because of budgets available from different organisations which enforces a decision as to whether we are allowed to participate in one scheme, funded by one organisation, or another...

    [Personal Question] Postgraduate Student: Should AS Be a Secret?

    I think you already have clarity of mind in that you believe in liberty and balance. Literal arguments can appear limited and bound to facts, but electricity, flying and equality are transcendent of fact and part of human intuition toward greater possibilities. I wish you all the very best in...

    [Personal Question] Postgraduate Student: Should AS Be a Secret?

    Yuurei, your diagnosis has nothing to do with who you are, it is a system from which laws demanding equality provide specific support mechanisms where corresponding difficulties are part of a diagnosed condition. I have an amazing ability to remember where I have discovered a combination of...
