Not sure how many already know but I am in the beginning stages of my diagnosis for ASD. The problem now is that ASD is categorized into five groups and the doctor's (clinicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, etc.) aren't sure if mine is Asperger's because they completely missed the diagnosis...

By now your average everyday millennial has heard of the term "Fandom". When it reaches your ears, you probably think about a stereotype about these specific groups of people. The truth is, fandom's could've actually been a result of our worlds culture and it just means they like this specific...

Art is a wonderful tool of expression around the world, it allows us to freely express ones mind, thoughts and feelings. When you think of art, you might think of a paint brush and a big white square to paint on, but it's much more than that. Art can be in any shape or form, being created as a...

Hey guys, I know it's been a while since my last post so I just wanted to update everyone. As seen in my introduction thread, I was and still am currently seeking diagnosis. In addition to my past diagnoses of ADHD and OCD, the Psychiatrist believes because of my tics that I definitely have...

I have to say this problem has haunted me my entire life. I'm too quick to speak my mind, and too brutally honest. It's gotten me into trouble time and time again, and my wife has shared that it's embarrassing for her at times. I get it. A lot of times I'll take a deep breath, and try to...

As time goes on, I feel more and more compelled to say, "**** 'em all" to the NT-run social media sites and whatnot. I've got a Medium account that I've had for a long time, and thanks to their oh-so-helpful algorithms, I end up with a lot of political and social justice stuff on my feed, which...

I did a remake of U2's Vertigo, but it's all electronic. Same speed, but 2 minutes longer. Right now I have two versions up. Check it out on Soundcloud HEQX
The 2 day Yom Tov of Shavuos is finally over, allowing me to finally research my weird problem with the insect sound in my ear. I researched it and discovered that I have Tinnitus.
My father went with me to a doctor a block away, but he wasn't home. We then went to a doctor a little further away and he was nice enough to check my ears and ask someone to turn on the light equipment to check my ears (he couldn't do it himself because it was Yom Tov). He checked my ears and...
I'm very scared right now! I hear the sound of an insect in my ears. I don't know what to do. I never had this before. If an insect is really in my head, I have a feeling that it will eat away a lot of my brain.
Learning triggers that help avoid emotionally fueled meltdowns is a win-win for everyone. Before learning them I'd react to everything. People would often be scratching their heads wondering what had happen. Most of my triggers go into alert when some sort of social interaction is planned to...

I found a series of videos where Tony Attwood answers questions regarding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I think these videos were a part of an interview conducted by the organization Spazio Asperger. The videos are split up into seven parts and they're in English with Italian subtitles. The...

Barking in the dark. That's what I'm doing right now. I just got the call today, and in the course of 20 minutes my world went from stable and predictable to "you're going half way around the world to do things you don't want to do." Ugh. But anyway, I just wanted to post something before I go...
