    So confused

    Thanks for the reply, I empathise greatly with you. I have always been very effeminate in my thinking and associate more closely with females than males. I fear there is nothing I can do, we are so far behind in mental health care in England. All the doctors give me are anti-depressants but...

    So confused

    Hi All So I just got the results of my assessment for Aspergers Syndrome. They explained it was a very difficult diagnosis because I express and have expressed so many typical asperger traits. However, they have given me a non diagnosis on the basis that my communication skills seem varied and...

    Smells... or just me?

    Hi (if your stomach is easily turned please skip this post) Undiagnosed 42yr old Aspie, but, "e-ghads, Mrs Meaker," I really do believe I'm an Aspie! Anyway, a question on smells as an Aspie trait: I have always loved my own bodily smells. My sweat, earwax, urine, faeces, everything. To me...

    I was about to correct you, but, perhaps I am over the worst. Time will tell. I just posted this publicly on Facebook: "Natalie Procter Chigozie, I'm not sure I've ever told you before, but I love you. I may have said it in the past, but if I did, I didn't really mean it because I didn't...

    Hey You Wow, thanks. So much. Really, so much. If I were more of a spiritual person, I would tell you to close your eyes for a second and I promise, you will feel my energy reaching out to hug you. I had this tattoo done when I was 20yrs old for two reasons: 1) I perceived that there...

    Hi Suzanne I don't feel very brave but thank you. First, I think you're right. I think the hard work is done... well, is in process. The "professional" diagnosis, I could understand, I guess, might not be important or relevant for some. This is the third time I've been "successful" in an...

    If it gives you as much pleasure as editing gives me, you are very lucky. Equally, I hope everyone finds their thing. I really do. I always have. Man, are all Aspie's so "hippy"? Or am I getting the wrong impression? N.

    Hi Kestrel I'm not sure about safer, but certainly the calming effect. I had a go at painting and really enjoyed it, but writing is my thing. Well, that's a lie, writing is simply the creative process necessary so that I have something to edit, re-edit and re-edit. That's what I love...

    Hey Judge Thanks for reaching out. I can imagine the confusion you may have gone through without understanding or dx. It remains disconcerting at the moment. No one has ever understood me then suddenly I've found this... idk?... "underclass", "secret society", "league of extraordinary...

    Hi Adora Thanks for contacting, I'd love to talk to you about your experiences and I'm happy to share anything. I'm doing better today. Right now I want to walk the streets screaming "Oh My God I See Myself For The First Time!!!" Bugger me - you know what? I really am a nice, loving...

    Thanks Rocco Here's a passage your painting reminded me of: "Liquid finished winding his projector, slotted his CroMag Nor’wester clockwork brain into its base, and balanced the lantern shaped device on his bed. After plugging in a sludge line he flicked the flint and the projector’s frosted...
