Just a place for my favorite Laurens.

If you had asked me a year ago if I would be in a healthy, committed relationship with someone who both loves and supports me by today's date, my answer would've been a loud no. It's been a long time coming. It still feels a bit like I've made all of this happiness up, like I am still sitting on...

My approach to reading is similar to walking around without tying your shoelaces. You start off with a certain direction in mind but you're never really sure where you may end up.
When you read you will often come across words you don't understand.
Yesterday I came across a definition that...
Checking my Whatsapp chats I've realized that I have three friends that I interact with, in the present: one is a college friend that lives in the other side of the Atlantic, a virtual friend that also lives in the other side of the Atlantic, and a friend (mom of a friend of my daughter's).

I keep trying to write about the phrase "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade", but the result always makes me want to punch myself in the throat - like I deserve a good throat-punch for writing something so cheery.
So let me put it like this:
I was once taught that losing is a personal...
Grup Yorum, a folk rock band in Turkey is continually having its members jailed by the dictatorial government. There are about 11 members in jail currently. But as members are arrested very brave new musicians join and keep it going.
A trouble shared is a trouble halved.
The problem : There is a vast difference between the owner of the trouble and the recipient of the trouble through the sharing process.
The owner of the trouble can feel a big relief through sharing - 50%
But the receiver of the trouble share does not take...
for those of us who didn't get diagnosed till late, or those of us who are actively trying to "Pass". do you ever feel like you are holding the real you back? like there's basically a whole other person who acts in ways the fake you would never in a million years act like?
like in my mind i...
This very brief entry was originally posted on my tumblr page.
There is no question that makes me more uncomfortable, that makes my mind and heart freeze more, than the question, “What Do You Do?” I dread it in every conversation that I have, with people I haven’t seen in a few years, with...
I watched the following video recently and wanted to add some comments from my own experience.
When I was a child I sometimes went to the grocery store with my grandmother. She wanted to be nice and asked me: "Would you like me to buy anything for you? What would you like?"
I never chose...
I like my routines and when everything works as I had planned or expected. However, it doesn't always work obviously.
I have three main strategies to cope with this:
1. Making backup plans
I go to work by bus and train. They are rather reliable in general, but of course there can be problems...
I have two friends who used to be a couple, who were friends of my ex and I when we were a couple too. We don’t live in the same country anymore, but when I learned that they separated more or less at the time than we did, I contacted them (separately).
What she said about their separation was...
I write this poem the other day. What inspired it was me thinking about my friend, who is going through a hard time right now. She is very private, tried to hide how she feels a lot. Sometimes I feel it gets in the way of our relationship. Prehaps this is made more of a problem by my inability...
I thought I would start this blog with a quick introduction. I'm SparklAng, my real name is Angharad. I am really happy I found this forum. Thank you to you all for being so welcoming to me.
I tend to go on a bit, writing concisely is not really a skill I have. So in an attept to keep this post...
The relationship with my dad was based in the exchange of knowledge, mostly him helping me out with school subjects, or him recommending me books.
It was never an equal exchange. He mostly downloaded information on me (aspie style) and I received it. I used to receive it gladly because I...
As a kid, i'd always take pride in the fact that my memory was better than most peoples. I thought i was super smart because i was hyper-verbal, and could recall exactly what i needed to know at the right moment. I also had the innate talent to read people, even if i didn't put too much...
i made a post in one of the fb groups im in. i asked if there were any connection to being born preme and becoming autistic and everyone, literally every person in the group misunderstood the question and made comments like,
"i was born late and still autistic"
"autism is genetic"
"its only...
