    Laughing at 'the wrong time'

    I wouldn't say it was inappropriate laughing, I laugh because I genuinely find something funny. Perhaps others aren't looking at it the same way as me because I laugh out loud and no one else seems to find it funny? It feels like they should be laughing and are holding back.

    Wrong Diagnosis - Bipolar vs Aspergers

    The DSM in my opinion is a fictional piece of work put together by some powerful medical professions who class together 'symptoms' to explain human condition which falls out of their range of normal. My son is diagnosed with PDDNOS but I believe he could have had his ways of being regrouped to...

    Could I have aspergers..??

    I grew up on an isolated back country sheep station until I was 4 years old, no other children except my brother who was 2 years younger. I've wondered about the affect of very little social interaction in those formative years?

    Small Talk (How much does it bother you?)

    I don't like it when people say "Hi how are you?" when they don't care how I am and don't want to know. I've given up in the main on small talk because it's a big factor in making social activity uncomfortable for me. To connect I try to think of something I really do wish to know about a...

    At what age did things start going wrong for you socially?

    The black and white version. It spoke to me very deeply.

    Autistic boy 'punched in the head and strangled with tie for having special needs'...

    It's true I feel like I have spent much of my life taking metaphorical beatings for being me. People have told me I scare them. Fear breeds hate anger aggression. I learnt to read the signs of attack very early on in life. My son sat behind the driver of the school bus in hope that it would...

    At what age did things start going wrong for you socially?

    I saw that film it was sooooooo horrible ... I often feel like I'm doing some sort of real life version of it ...I'm just waiting for the rescue!

    At what age did things start going wrong for you socially?

    At the age of about 4years old when I started Kindergarten. I remember it being like one big sensory nightmare after being brought up on a high country sheep station. The Kindergarten spoke to my Mum because I wouldn't go to the mat when asked. Mum said she asked me why not and I replied that...

    Do You Hold Grudges?

    My grudges and resentments seem to be very deep seated and flare up in the extreme when a person's or people's collective behaviour touches. Perhaps years of feelings without the ability to put words to them and subsequently no real ability to express how I feel?

    Predisposed to be a liar?

    I lied through a lot of my life trying to say the appropriate thing, then Id metaphorically beat myself senseless for it.

    Rage & Breaking Points

    I too feel like my rage could land me in jail ...quite a bit of late. I try to see void of emotion then take the next necessary step toward calm. This has meant lovingly detaching from people places and things that I feel angry around and that hurts and makes me feel very lonely. I believe I'm...

    The Stigma of Self-Diagnosis

    Hand writing ...mine is scrawly too I think its actually getting worse since I painstakingly stopped trying to get it down solidly.

    Just getting so tired of 'Life'

    It helps me to see the suffering as a necessary part of life, like yin and yang. It's through the suffering I'm best able to see the light, to find gratitude in the simple things in life like the stars shining or the wind as it moves through the trees.

    Ideas To Keep Me From Scratching Myself

    That is a good topic. I don't pick and pull at the skin under my nails so much now but I do pull out my hair and I am really itchy. I quite like it though.
