    How Did You Become Diagnosed?

    I rejected it at first because my normality goes in and out but acceptance and learning more helps me cope.

    Hey I`m autistic just recently found out.

    Anti psychotic made me have seizures. Ritalin is ok but it makes my tick worse and more trouble eating and sleeping. The best thing was vibryd but it made everything to intense with my sensory problems but was great on a low dose. Unfortunately Kaiser doesn't cover it and it's $400 for a 90 day...

    It is so very relieving isn't it? I love my new psychiatrist he took me off all the meds the moment he figured out what it was. He did put me on Ritalin but it's for only when I work because I build a tolerance so fast. Let me ask you this. Did you have a lot of problems with the meds? Things...

    Vanilla yes I had my own language but mostly talked to myself this way. I still replace some words with meow if I don't know what to say. Someone noticed me and my daughter talking and said it's almost like we have another language. Which I didn't notice till pointed out.

    Hey I`m autistic just recently found out.

    I apologize a lot for the things I say. Speaking of different language me and my daughter sounded like we talked a different language when we were very young. I was basically her translator till she spoke like everyone else at 4.

    Hey I`m autistic just recently found out.

    Just got the book thank you for the recommendation. This definitely came as a shock. I worked with autistic children when I worked in pre-k. I just thought it was my kind heart they gravitated towards. I never had the same troubles other teachers had with them. I do miss teaching but twas the...

    Color Obsessions

    I love green eyes they are my favorite to stare at lol. I had difficulty looking at eyes so I turned it into a special interest as a child drawing eyes over and over till I wasn't afraid to look. Green is so amazing and rare. What kind of green? Hazel or just straight green? Mine are a grey...

    I hope the thought didn't bring it on I'm sorry if it did. I've just realized what they are and that they aren't just me being crazy. I just really wish I could gain some control of this.

    How can you tell a meltdown is coming? If I could just pinpoint that I could probably avoid a lot of conflict.

    That's how I feel about my father. I wish I had that kind of relationship with my mother. After I got the diagnosis and told my mother and could finally explain why touch bothers me so much to the point it can hurt. She retorts jokingly how about a hug and comes at me arms out you need 3 hugs a...
