    Bad habits are no good habits.

    Download the app “Atoms”. It’s a habit app created by the guy who wrote the popular self-help book “Atomic Habits”. On top of it being a habit building app, it also provides all the main advice from his book.

    Advice about a friendship situation

    I don’t think this is silly to bring up since there is sometimes a code that you’re talking about. I agree with you about it possibly being out of bounds socially if Jack was an ex, but she doesn’t have any wiggle room when it’s a friend situation. It’s better to rant here than actually do...

    Autistic “bluntness”

    I’m usually not blunt, but I can really be occasionally if I’m calling something out. It’s usually so uncharacteristic of me I’ve made people laugh/have a “Did that really come from Kitsuna?” reaction before.

    Unsure about going non-contact with my mum

    I have a mother with untreated bipolar disorder and who has used things she bought for me as strings attached as well. This past fall, I talked to a therapist who backed a decision of mine to go no contact with her because like you, I felt better when I was temporarily cutting her off to figure...

    It's too cold outside.

    It’s been dipping into around the 20s where I live. We had a bunch of rain earlier this week, and that caused state shutdowns, because my state isn’t used to ice and snow. The interstate highway in my city was closed on Tuesday because officials didn’t want drivers causing accidents. Weather’s...

    Why am I so unlucky?

    I think you and I clashed a tiny bit once on that forum, but if you remember that, it was me putting my foot in my mouth for a second and I regret seemingly triggering you. While I don't see eye-to-eye with you all the time, I saw you as generally one of the nicest people on there, so I do...

    The last thing that made you laugh

    I also watched the movie Ghost last night that starred Whoopi Goldberg along with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore and a bunch of Goldberg’s scenes were funny.

    Finding it harder to move or speak when I'm upset

    I definitely relate to this. Like it’s been said by others, I can start shutting down if I’m really tired and someone is agitating me. I’ve also shut down in confrontations. I usually try to remove myself to avoid the shutdowns making things worse.

    I can’t decide if I want to be formally diagnosed or not

    Thanks again! Everyone’s been really helpful.

    I can’t decide if I want to be formally diagnosed or not

    Thanks for the responses so far everyone! With what I want out of this: I think it’s mostly a combo of better self-understanding and a bit of validation. I agree the diagnosis (I think I picked up the “label” wording from somewhere and just rolled with it, but maybe that’s a clumsy way of...

    I can’t decide if I want to be formally diagnosed or not

    Okay, I don’t usually open up about personal details of my life on this site often, so my backstory in regards to my self-diagnosed autism is I started suspecting I was on the spectrum about 20 years ago in high school due to otherwise unexplained differences from my peers, but I was shut down...

    I'm sorry to hear about your friend's pup! Sending prayers for both!

    I can’t stop thinking about being disliked

    @Markness I feel like I should step back in to make sure things are clear… Earlier this year, I posted something on one of your threads I readily admit was pretty blunt and could’ve been taken even worse as it was abrupt. Even though I was pretty direct about some criticism I gave I don’t want...
