Make Your Disaster Relief Contributions Count.Do I assume correctly that LSS assists with major earthquake disasters and tsunamis like the ones that have plagued Alaska?- Coxhere

Fair-weather FriendsWay to many people have that additude I'm afraid.😔It seems like toned down traits of narcissism and machiavellianism are everywhere. It's sad really.- FayetheADHDsquirrel

It wasn't as though I hadn't heard of Autism back then.It's just...well..the criteria for diagnosis was different in the late fifties and early 60's. .My mom worked as a part -time registered nurse a few nights a week during a time when most women worked at home as "housewives." Though she was...
I feel insane most days, like I am looking through a window at the world. The only thing off is the room I am in has no doors, only a small grimy window to look through. I see the same faces, sometimes new faces, just looking at me, but I can't say anything. I still move, and speak but it's not...
Bye-bye peace, you didn't last long. Hello agony, hello falling out of sync with people.
Frequently I feel like I don't understand people and their motives at all. Like I was born yesterday.
When I think friend, I think "I have their back, they have mine". When I think "casual fun and not...
Well, I have no one to talk to about this so I guess I'll just post it here. It's moments like these when I understand the value of having people with shared interests in one's life. JK aren't well known and I'd probably get crickets if I started a thread on the subject, so I won't clutter the...
Such is the game of life to figure out. I never liked how in the society of our world, we tend not to be open enough in a 1-1 context when we should be. Everyone shops around for acquaintances and true friends alike. It's generally not socially acceptable to just tell a person you only want a...
Hi All, this was posted on the ABC Open and I thought I would share it with you. A Difficult Time
I agree with the words of Temple Gradin, a fellow Asperger’s sufferer, when she writes in her book. "The way I see it, one can learn social skills." This is true, as I have managed to learn many...
Hey All,
I've been reading a lot about about the relationship between digestive problems and sensitivity and autism. More specifically how eating foods with gluton, sugar, and msg can cause all sorts of problems for those who have sensitive digestive systems. Dairy products often cause problems...
An ominous calm. Woke up with no feelings whatsoever, just thoughts. While my emotions are recovering from the previous meltdown, I am enjoying the quietness and evenness of being. For how long? Little stirs, here and there, but no big deal. Reluctant to get out of the house for a few days now...
Why is it that I have so many instances of miscommunication online? Is it just me, or is it common? I've become rather demoralized over it. I've begun to think that online spaces are too impersonal. Maybe they are only too impersonal for certain types of communication, but I'm afraid that type...
One day the taxi driver Fred Belly drove his taxi along Bucket Road, Gants Hill to pick up Ben Suitcase, a member of Fruitbowl Day Centre, and take him home.
As the taxi left the driver went weird and drove it on the pavement and stopped at a tree to pick up a bird on top to take him to Slop...
One day I was having my fish and chips when, “all of a sudden the chips jumped off the plate and flew up to my face inflicting a number of bites. In fact so fierce were the bites that snakes popped out of my face, turning me into a monster.
The appearance of a monster with snakes popping out...
Spilled water all over the kitchen, dropped an ice tray - ice cubes went flying everywhere, spilled soup on myself, tripped over the cat, smashed my head against the freezer door. Ouch. A normal Aspie day.
A personal challenge I thought to write about.
This morning, I was nervous about going to get a tooth operation done at the hospital.
As I sat in a room waiting for the nurse to arrive, I saw someone being wheeled down the corridor outside who had been knocked out by the gas. I could've done...
I have to share this somewhere, and this space seems the most appropriate.
Today I was getting off the ferry with a lot of stuff on my hands. The express bus no longer runs at this hour.
I had $20 and decided to go for a taxi and look for three other people to join me. People don't seem to be...
I'm reluctant to post stuff in my blog here because I stupidly created my account with the same username as the one I use on another website. I'm quite uneasy with the possibility of someone conducting Internet searches on my username and finding the content I've created here (not that this is a...
An interview with the autistic documentary filmmaker Dana Dimant. The director of the documentary film 'High Functioning'.

Big deal, my interests and abilities are different from most people. So there are certain things I cannot do, (and certain things I am very good at). This is my "condition". It is me, and in many ways it is good.
But, as it stands, my REAL problem is my image, i.e. my "gender and age". If I...
What helps me is my music! :D
Every single day I have to listen to at least one song or I get upset! :) It help block people out! It help my anger problem! :) When I watch lyrics videos, (like on YouTube!) I learn new spelling words! A lot better then what teachers teach me! :D I drop out of...
I'm starting a story to share with you guys.. I like to write, but what about? any suggestions?, please comment your ideas! :):grinning:
...A choice about how to tell sad stories.
Sorry. I probably shouldn't reference a book I haven't read yet. It's just that the trailer of the movie starts with that and I keep seeing it during the commercials on YouTube. It is still a very relevant quote, though. I feel like it sums me up...
