    Not only that but if you go on vacation, the fish will have something to eat (though not recommended...).

    Fish Tank

    Nice! Are the plants real?

    Hello.

    Welcome! Fish tanks are awesome! I love building up little 'habitats' in a tank and learning about the biology. Also, fish breeding is quite fun and would make a good hobby now that winter is over. Alas, I had to give up that interest now that I live in a tiny Manhattan apartment :(. Post pics...

    Special Ed- Would it have made a difference?

    Me and a few autistic friends of mine were all enrolled in the regular class. The was a stigma about the special ed class since the special ed folks drool, hand flap. yell in class, and other inappropriate behavior. The high functioning autistic folks were nearly normal except the inability to...

    Clothes - Do you like to wear the same outfit?

    Sort of. I have an outfit for each type of weather. The weather here changes a lot (except during the summer where it's ridiculously hot and humid) so I have an outfit for each temperature range. I try to wear shorts down to 10 degrees Celsius since I hate the feeling of fabric scraping against...

    The Circle

    I went to the doctor today because of chronic headaches. He basically told me to start eating healthy, start sleeping normally, and stop eating garbage. I am ashamed that I still don't know how to take care of myself and scheduled an appointment with a nutritionist. I also went out to see a...

    If you went back time?

    I would go back in time and take advantages of all the opportunities that I gave up on because I was too scared to pursue them. But I just know that I will still have regrets and will be depressed about it no matter how hard I try.

    How much time do you spend with friends?

    We're all so lonely :(. I voted zero since I spend an average of less than one hour with colleagues, acquaintances, friends, and family. I feel lonely often enough to make me sad.

    Medical Advice Please?

    Are there free clinics in your area?

    Lost 17 pounds!

    Supposedly, if you go from eating normally to eating almost nothing, it is not very sustainable. Eventually, you will go back to your normal diet. I have read somewhere that in order to develop a new diet, you must change gradually. As for going days without food, yeah...I did it last week when...

    Medical Advice Please?

    Well, you're still alive and well so I guess it didn't get infected. But I would see a doctor just in case. It never hurts to get a prescription for antibiotics. Also, this may not be good advice - but you can always tell the doctor you injured yourself at home while making repairs on your house.

    losing my grip

    kchapman1988 - I have some issues with saying stupid things and being extra clumsy when I am tired too. In my experience, more sleep makes me feel tired. Based on what I have read (and from personal experience), it seems that you may have anxiety and/or depression issues. I am not a professional...

    Where would YOU live?

    I live in New York City. It's a nice place to live if you're young or rich...or even better - both young and rich. Sure it's crowded, dirty, loud, touristy, hot and humid in the summer, expensive, full of people who can't speak English, but there's almost everything here. I would never move...

    Hi! Not sure if I belong here?

    Hi, Obi and welcome! Without seeing a professional, it is difficult to determine whether you have Aspergers. In the DSM-V, they are replacing Aspergers with autistic spectrum disorder, so I am not sure what significance an Aspergers diagnosis is at this point. I can relate to your experience...
