To me, the word “argument” does not carry a negative connotation. To me, it refers to “a statement, reason, or fact for or against a point”.
I think of it as a mathematical statement that can be proved or disproved.
I have less interest for something that cannot be proved or disproved, like a...
There are a million things I could write about, but I know from experience it’s the best to limit each post to one topic, even if this feels restrictive or artificial.
In the long run, if you keep blogging, eventually all the thoughts will be let out, and by making this limitation, now you have...
I’ve been looking into this on and off for a couple of years, and I’ve always joked with my close online friends of my “autism”.
But last week I randomly started reading this forum, plus a couple of books, and now I’m convinced I have autism.
I want to be cautious as I don’t want to...
I want to get fired so i can finally rest a little. It feels like weekends just pass by and i never feel well rested.
My job is too fast paced, and i am too slow. I am also regularly feeling angry and numb and don't have time or energy to socialize with my coworkers any more.
Today was so hard...
A word of warning to any who find themselves here out of curiosity: I am not sure about that motivation and to be honest all that follows is spontaneous and (for the most part) unedited [and I am typing this now before any editing has a chance of occurring and for that very matter, this sentence...
Uninstalled WhatsApp. Probably an "all or nothing" response to things, but I might as well expand upon my reasoning. The only person I speak to on there is Meg, and I'm tired of feeling like I'm waiting for responses. Not sure how, but now she's not working, her replies seem to be even slower...
Getting a feedback document after a four hour neuropsych profile only confirms what I've known forever. My son is different in how he thinks, acts, etc. He is on the autism spectrum. It explains every difficulty that he's ever encountered. Waiting for recommendations for two weeks is going...
Hi.
Yesterday I decided that the best way to solve my anxiety and uncertainty regarding my teacher was going straight to him and confess. Not in a way to get a chance, but a way to hit myself with the reality and make my brain understand it's impossible that my feelings will ever be answered...
I dream about tellin my mom everything. Why it was so hard for me to make friends, my first love and how he made me feel like life is worth living. How my memories Somehow seemed more real than reality. Its sad that that life will never come back, but whats sadder is i won't ever be able to talk...
Freedom or restriction?
Each time I became single I felt freer. When me and Meg decided to go back to being friends I felt a physical relief from how much anxiety I’d had in our relationship.
Thing is, since then I haven’t really felt that free, and whilst reflecting on my behaviour and...
Tuesday
Drove to meet Meg on Saturday morning. Woke up early, had a shower, got the paper as soon as the village shop opened. Then posted it through the letterbox at my parents and set off. The drive was easy enough, I made good progress as I left around 6:05 and so the roads were very quiet...
Last night I put on an episode of the new Top Gear. They had 3 old convertible cars, one of which is the same era Mercedes SLK that my parents have. When I pointed it out, they both got very excited.
My mum then watched for a bit and exclaims, that's a different model to my Mercedes, because it...
Hi.
It's being a rollercoaster of emotions all together this month. Slowly, I'm getting truly burned due to my constant feelings for him, along side with my economic stress, family issues and really bad stuff happening to the ones now I consider my friends. I have no one to talk about it...
Hi.
My entries are being more frequent as I'm crossing a very complicated emotional phase that I'm not knowing how to control it no matter how I mask and rely on my created self.
First, since my grandmother died, we're in a very delicate economical situation that are making me rethink my stay...
Didn’t smoke this morning. Congratulations? Not sure. Don’t feel really with it today even though I’m sober. Feeling rather foggy.
This morning I heard 4 loud beeps every 30 seconds in the cabin. I tried to pin point it. Initially I thought it was the alarm. I never paid too much attention to...
Hi. Things were coming along very well. We met on a dating app a few months ago and have been actively dating and talking daily since. Until last week. He is ND and had ADHD. He was very diligent about contacting me daily, via text mostly, phone or FaceTime. I also reached out to him. We have...
Seem to be stimming more of late. Moments of pure hyperactivity. Some of it is on the drive home. Masking in the office and then a big release that’s needed to acclimate I suppose? Not sure really. It’s short, intense bursts of very loud, random noises and exaggerated movements and all sorts...
I feel like I need to be utilised better at work. But with the boss and his partner away, there isn’t really much I can do other than when Craig needs a hand. But he answers virtually all the calls, because 9 times out of 10, any calls I do take will be queries for him anyway.
With customers...
Hi.
Long time without posting. I started classes again. After 5 years being unable to stay in a class with people of my age, I tried again. And the experience is being incredible so far.
I've met incredible people, we support each other constantly. We even did a small party on Saturday and it...
