    Looking a lot younger?

    Thank you Warwick, You can call me Maria if you want. Either one is fine (whatever you are comfy with.) And I'll do it. I'll have to do it tomorrow because after 28+ hs up I'm getting foggy (cognitively.) And I hope we can manage that! And Yeah, the wording will have to be just so. I don't want...

    Looking a lot younger?

    I think there is a thread on anorexia and aspergers in the female pop. but it had maybe 3 posts? There was not ED/Anorexia-ONLY thread.

    Looking a lot younger?

    Oh, thank YOU for giving me the chance to. I am not bothered talking about it, I worry about maybe triggering someone maybe, that's all. But I speak out about it, in the nitty gritty details, so that maybe...MAYBE I can help some more people. That would make me happy. So again, thank you.

    The Day Has Improved (yes, even with the current headline...)

    First, Nelson Mandela's death, though sad, made me think about life and about what he'd represented, etc. Couldn't stay so grumpy. Second, (and now my materialist side emerges), I was cleared to get hosting for word press and a domain (obviously.) Just waiting to think of a decent name and...

    Nelson Mandela has died at the age of 95 (1918-2013)

    May you rest in peace, sir.

    Looking a lot younger?

    Yes. The aftermath...it's tough, too. I sympathise with her. Ihave osteoporosis (mild) in some area and have most of my GI system shutting down, paralysing to be exact and my kidneys and heart are just rebelling, too. And abuse is such a major trigger =\ Anorexia is not something you can...

    Not a Great Day ...

    I brought it on myself. I stubbornly stayed up all night, barely moved from the one position and am now achy, irritable, sleep deprived and may have a small meltdown at some point today. I don't even have access to my usual films/player/tv etc so I can do my typical chilling-via-escapism. And...

    Do You Believe In God?

    As some have stated, I also don't really think of a person's religion when I meet them. I'm a practising Catholic and am not ashamed to say so but I also don't care if you believe... well, whatever you believe. I also don't mind when people openly oppose any belief of mine (example: Richard...

    Hi from Sunny San Diego!

    Welcome to the forum, Jessica. I'm rather new myself and I've truly enjoyed the last couple of days as a member. I hope you also find support, information, other members' stories' to relate to, etc. I personally was diagnosed recently at 28 after years of a variety of (now mostly discarded)...

    Asperger's - Perfect vision + Perfect Hearing - Sensory Issues

    Genetics truly are fascinating :D And though I'm not quite as badly myopic (-6.5 and -5.75, R & L respectively) my astigmatism is just...crazy and it's not slowing down. I first was diagnosed with myopia at age 6 (first grade teacher noticed some problems.) And my sight plus the strain I often...

    Comment by 'IbiPatria' in 'First post: Obsessions, High Temperatures and A Hot Laptop...'

    Haha! Oh my, I feel embarrassed I forgot the name of it. That's exactly what I meant by "Oh, and I have no ventilated laptop .... err, that cooling thing?" So eloquent. But yes. I do need one of those. I don't know if they have any around here and either way I have to, first of all, buy a...
