    Wish I could find a girl to even hang out with me

    I think this sort of post is what needs to stop, it just makes matters worse. It's everywhere in these discussions and I think people repeat what they read without thinking about what they are really saying. Imagine that Tony was Tina, a woman who had been mistreated by men and "helpful" posters...

    Wish I could find a girl to even hang out with me

    Unless they are your sister or mother, being alone together has a certain connotation from a third party perspective and invites further development between the two of you. They likely don't want other people getting the wrong idea and most of all they don't want you getting the wrong idea. You...

    Have you ever been told you had a demon?

    The voice in my head tells me I don't.

    I will put my truth here....

    You seem to be punishing yourself more than anyone else with your sky-high expectations of people and life in general. Embrace pessimism and be happy.

    Would I be better or more miserable if I admit I will accept I will never have a girlfriend?

    Absolute pessimism is a tried and true road to lifelong contentment. Always assume the worst will happen and you'll never be disappointed again. Everything better than the worst case scenario can be enjoyed as a pleasant surprise.

    Why does autism steal symptoms of everything else?

    It can work both ways. Sensory issues might cause noticeably odd behaviour, screaming the school down when you hear the bell might well make people keep you at arms length. In the other direction social isolation might cause sensory (overload) issues through simple deprivation and lack of...

    Why does autism steal symptoms of everything else?

    Two posts in and I already find a chance to start my opus on the theory of autism. Apologies to those who hold autism as part of their identity and may be offended by my ramblings. I do not believe "Autism" is a real thing, that is to say, some genetic defect or problem with the wiring of the...

    I had enough of faith and belief in God

    The gifts of Christianity are entirely spiritual. The idea that God is a good times vending machine - insert prayer, receive treat - is quite damaging. When that belief inevitably collides with reality it can turn people down very dark roads.
