Day to Day Life
I’m separated and so are you. I want to move forward, start anew. You want your wife to continue fighting. But she just can’t. She doesn’t have any strength left. You see me and you see your wife. You see my ex and you see yourself. You want me to go back to him, because that’s what you...

Aspergers & Autism
"It's very difficult that kids that age know what they want to be when they grow up" said my dad, sixty-seven, when I was telling him that my daughter, thirteen, already knew what she wanted to do when she grows up. Today, in the locker of the pool where I go swimming, I heard two women...

Don't get me wrong, high self-esteem is important. It is absolutely integral to your sense of well-being. But what you need is a sense a real sense of high self-esteem. A secure sense of high self-esteem. "But Gritches, how does one achieve such a thing?" What a handsome question. First...

I've really never talked about this? Oh well, better late than never: I see it every day, people are caught up in this trap of worrying about "self-esteem". Let me explain the borderline pseudo-psychological bullcrap that is the modern understanding of self-esteem, and when I'm done I'll...

It’s been a while since my last update. I’ve been working really hard (surprise!). Too hard, really. Because of the flu season, a few of my coworkers were sick. Since we’re understaffed already, I ended up covering for two coworkers. Which means thrice the normal amount of patients (and...

Being somewhat new to the ASD world of realisation, and still waiting on an assessment-as if that will give me permission to be ‘me’ Officially. I didn’t realise how little seems to be available for those in my situation. I can cope, until I can’t. Where is that little book of survival...

Well, I'm waiting for my Xbox One to download a 722 MB update over a satellite connection, so I have a few hours to kill, might as well write about what I've been thinking about lately. Traumatic memories trigger negative emotions because they're encoded in a fragmented manner. Memories have...

Okay, so, I have a lot of problems with the song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia". It's nothing to do with the subject matter, with religious implications, morality, nonononono. None of that. There are just so many things about the ballad that don't quite add up to zero, if you know what I mean...
