    Do you feel inhibited or uncomfortable in your house expressing yourself or leaning any art?

    I have always had trouble accepting compliments from others. IT makes me cringe, and feel like they're being insincere. Not picking up those cues, I guess. I enjoy painting, drawing, and sculpting. I get anxiety and fear that I am going to spend too much time on something, and it turn out bad...

    What are your aspie fears and how many of you share my own?

    I was on buspirone for about five years. The last two, over maximum dosage. I couldn't tell that it made much of a difference. I believe my anxiety was progressing faster than the increases in dosage. I have always had a high tolerance to both physical and mental pain. I don't see this as a...

    What are your aspie fears and how many of you share my own?

    All of the above. And this. I don't feel my fears cause my anxiety. It is more like instincts gone wild. Like a deer caught in the headlights of an eighteen wheeler. Before I was diagnosed I had one job where most of my coworkers were female. I was very self conscious, and found myself...

    Is this garbage?

    The times i get "so lonely I could die", I remind my self of the odds of me of meeting, mutually falling in love, and then spending the rest of my life with a woman like this. There is one thing that has always bothered me about adult mental health diagnosis. The fear that one such as myself...

    Christianity and Aspergers

    I feel I see practical applications , while those around me want to spiritualize everything. They believe there is only reward in Heaven, and that any good you receive on earth is by providential coincidence. I don't believe in coincidence as the term is used today, two instances brought...

    Bread Baking

    Make sure to save some starter in case you really like it. I think, giving the starter to a friend so it doesn't take them as long to make it is how it got it's name.

    How do you feel about toothpaste?

    I googled "fluoride caused autism". Just for giggles. Most of the websites on the first page of the results, were cookie cutter fringe, alt, leftist, fake news type websites. Not dissimilar to ones being posted in Autism Spectrum News, Events and Research. Example of an actual news story, with...

    The stigma of Anti Anxiety meds

    I have only been prescribed buspirone specifically for anxiety. I was taking 75mg, max dose is 60mg. I don't know if that means anything. My psychiatrist at the time, made me aware of the risks before prescribing it. I was gradually brought up to the 75mg. She seemed very confident that it would...

    New Here And Out Of My Comfort Zone

    I agree. I take care of my dad while my mom works. She is a nurse. If I didn't he would end up in a nursing home. He says if that happens, he will stop eating and die. That plus living in the country, with no transportation of my own, I'm pretty much stuck, for the foreseeable future.

    New Here And Out Of My Comfort Zone

    Here in the US, the attorney gets 25% of the back pay, that has accrued since the time you filled. A bad attorney may stall the process to get more money. I had three years of back pay built up. In my case, I will have to restart the process, if I file again. My advocate pretty much screwed me.

    New Here And Out Of My Comfort Zone

    I got similar result. My advocate didn't show up to my first hearing. They said I could be a janitor but I would probably have to move. Because I live aprox. 9 miles from town. This was very disheartening, because I have had several decent paying jobs in the past. I have a dis-ability in...
